A recent description of the Muslim Caliphate Slavery system in “The Erased Horrors of Islamic Caliphate Slavery,” presents a chilling historical account that resonates strongly with Iain McGilchrist’s concept of “Left Hemisphere Capture” as detailed in his works McGilchrist 2018, McGilchrist 2019, and McGilchrist 2021\. McGilchrist posits that problems arise when the left hemisphere (LH), which is adept at handling abstractions, categories, and parts, usurps the role of the right hemisphere (RH), which understands wholes, context, and lived experience \[1-5\]. The Caliphate system appears to embody many of the negative consequences of such LH dominance.
