Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Interrogating Muslims
Book SynopsisThis book interrogates the patterns and discursive structures that have generated the seeming urgency of Muslims' integration. Focusing on Germany, it problematizes the grounds on which politics of integration are justified and reasoned upon, and thereby investigates divergent operations of power vis-à-vis Muslims and Islam in a formally liberal-secular society. The integration paradigm in Germany has been predicated on an imperial knowledge regime, in which Islam figures as the external friend or enemy of an imagined Christian secular. This book analyzes three kinds of integration practices as symptomatic sites for the multifaceted dimensions of power in this paradigm: the scientific measurement of Muslims' degrees of integration which are correlated with their degrees of religiosity; the politics of recognition promoted by state-organized dialogue with Muslims; and the threat of sanction, found in the regulations of citizenship and explicitly in citizenship tests. Centrally, thTrade ReviewWell-written, perceptive, and un-flinching in its analysis, Schirin Amir-Moazami’s Interrogating Muslims is an important and timely intervention into the conversations and contestations around the Muslim Question in Germany. Amir-Moazami shows with rare clarity that we should think of ‘integration’ less as the incontrovertible good in the contested terrain of majority-minority relations and more as a crucial element in the governance of Muslim minorities—and in the identity formation of the majority. Through the lens of the Muslim Question, what comes into focus here is in fact the question of Germany’s liberal identity itself. * Heiko Henkel, Associate Professor of Anthropology, University of Copenhagen, Denmark *Schirin Amir-Moazami carefully studies how the structural interrogation of Muslims by state institutions in Europe forms an intrinsic part of the politics of integration. It does not stem from 9/11 and its aftermath, but has a much longer and more structural genealogy that connects it to the ‘liberal-secular matrix,’ the politics of recognition, and the colonial mindset. This book provides the fundamental critique of integration in relation to Muslims in Europe that we needed. * Yolande Jansen, Associate Professor of Social and Political Philosophy, University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands *By tracing the connections between the current political occupation with the integration of Muslims and the longer trajectories of nation-state building and European colonial projects, this book provides an important and refreshing contribution to the literature on integration and its discontent. * Birgitte Schepelern Johansen, Associate Professor of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies, University of Copenhagen, Denmark *Table of ContentsAcknowledgements Introduction 1.

Springer Deutsche Muslime – muslimische Deutsche: Begegnungen mit Konvertiten zum Islam
Book SynopsisDas Buch befasst sich mit dem bislang noch weitgehend unbehandelten Gebiet der Konversion von Deutschen zum Islam und beruht auf langjährigen Feldstudien der Autorin in Deutschland. Es bietet neue Einsichten in die Zusammenhänge und Spannungen, die dieses stetig wachsende religiöse Phänomen in Deutschland und darüber hinaus hervorbringt.Von Jahr zu Jahr nimmt die Zahl der Europäer, die sich dem Islam zuwenden, zu. Die vorliegende Publikation erforscht wie insbesondere Deutsche den Islam für sich entdecken, ihre Verbundenheit zum Islam trotz der gesellschaftlich eher ablehnenden Haltung und Furcht leben, wie sie sich zu den eingewanderten Muslimen in Beziehung setzen und wie sie die Debatten um Rasse, Religion und europäischer Zugehörigkeit erleben und mitgestalten.Esra Özyürek wirft einen Blick darauf, wie die Gesellschaft konvertierte Mitbürger an den Rand drängt und deren nationale Loyalität in Frage stellt. Im Gegenzug versuchen sich die zum Islam konvertierten Deutschen von Migranten aus muslimisch geprägten Ländern abzugrenzen und einen „entnationalisierten“ Islam, frei von türkischen oder arabischen Traditionen, zu etablieren.Table of ContentsDeutscher Islam, rassifizierte Muslime .- Ein Islam mit deutschem Antlitz.- Die Distanzierung von migrantischen Muslimen.- Ostdeutsche Konversionen zum Islam nach dem Mauerfall.- Der Islam als eine Möglichkeit, Deutscher zu werden.- Salafismus – die Zukunft des europäischen Islam?.- Schlussfolgerungen.

Springer International Publishing AG British Muslims and Their Discourses
Book SynopsisThis book highlights the changing dynamics of Muslim identity and integration in Britain, focusing on the post-9/11 era. Historically, Muslims faced discrimination based on ethnicity rather than religion. However, contemporary discrimination against Muslims is rooted in different reasons, with events like the Rushdie affair significantly impacting multicultural relations. This study analyzes the evolving multicultural landscape in Britain, exploring the shift from predominantly assimilationist policies to a more mutual process of integration. It delves into the emergence of interfaith dialogue as well as the complexities surrounding the intersection of race, religion, gender, and identity. The research examines two key themes: the discursive positioning of Islam beyond integration and terrorism narratives, and the operationalization of identity by Muslims in various contexts. The study employs empirical methods and cultural studies theories to understand how individual and social practices intersect in this context. By doing so, it contributes to Islamic studies, socio-political studies, and cultural studies, shedding light on the discourses that shape and are shaped by Muslim lives in Britain. The analysis encompasses diverse perspectives, from macro-level societal discourses to micro-level individual actions, thus providing a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted experiences of Muslims in Britain.Table of ContentsSection I.

Liverpool University Press The Politics of Muslim Intellectual Discourse in
Book SynopsisThis book is a case study in the literary, psychoanalytic, and theological encounters between diasporic Muslim intellectuals and secular western modernity. It centres on the simultaneous search for the possibility of both a reformation of Islamic fundamentalism and a transformation of the exclusionary limitations of western public institutions. With roots in original research in the fields of comparative religion and cultural studies, and drawing on sources in English, French, and Arabic, the author introduces and elaborates the concept of "Western-Islamic public sphere". This concept defines what is at stake in the formative play of public representations where traditionalist foundations and modernist adaptations meet, clash, and produce discourse around their common disequilibrium. The Western-Islamic public sphere (which is secular but not secularist and which is Islamic but not Islamist), within which a critical Islamic intellectual universe can unfold, deals hermeneutically with texts and politically with lived practices. It emerges from within the arc of two alternative, conflicting, yet equally dismissive suspicions defined by a view that critical Islam is the new imperial rhetoric of hegemonic orientalism and the opposite view that critical Islam is just fundamentalism camouflaged in liberal rhetoric. This innovative and original scholarly apparatus offers a third view -- one that arises in its practice from ethical commitment to intellectual engagement, creativity, and imagination as a portal to the open horizons of conflictual history.

Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden Selbstmordanschläge und Islam: Muslime zwischen
Book SynopsisDas Phänomen der Selbstmordattentäter ist historisch belegt und nicht auf bestimmte Religionen und Kulturen begrenzt. Trotzdem liegt der Fokus häufig auf Taten, die in einem islamischen Kontext verübt werden. Die zentralen Beweggründe für Selbstmordattentäter sind politischer Natur. Dass der religiöse Aspekt dennoch überhöht wird, liegt an dem Stereotyp, wonach der Islam besonders gewaltfördernd sei. Diese Darstellung wiederum führt bei Muslimen mitunter dazu, die religiöse Komponente solcher Gewaltakte zu ignorieren oder zu leugnen. Ein Zusammenhang zwischen Selbstmordattentaten und Islam ist aber nicht von der Hand zu weisen.Table of ContentsDie Abkürzung in den Himmel.- Jihad ist Pflicht.- Die wohlverwahrte Tafel – bei Gott ist alles festgeschrieben.- Positionierungen in der muslimischen Gelehrtenwelt.- Was geht mich das an?.

Book SynopsisEvery year more and more Europeans, including Germans, are embracing Islam. It is estimated that there are now up to one hundred thousand German converts--a number similar to that in France and the United Kingdom.

Diving deeply into Islamic theology, and sharing lessons from his own life story, he reveals how Muslims lost the universalism that made them a great civilization in their earlier centuries and what the cost has been. He highlights how values often associated with Western Enlightenment freedom, reason, tolerance, and an appreciation of science had Islamic counterparts, which tragically were cast aside in favour of more dogmatic views, often for political reasons.Elucidating complex ideas with engaging prose and storytelling, Reopening Muslim Minds borrows lost visions from medieval Muslim thinkers to offer a new Muslim worldview on a range of burning issues: human rights, equality for women,

Book SynopsisThis book examines the works of Medieval Muslim philosophers interested in intercultural encounters and how receptive Islam is to foreign thought, to serve as a dialogical model, grounded in intercultural communications, for Islamic and Arabic education. The philosophers studied in this project were instructors, tutors, or teachers, such as Al-Kindi, Al-Farabi, Al-Ghazali, and Averroes, whose philosophical contributions directly or indirectly advanced intercultural learning. The book describes and provides examples of how each of these philosophers engaged with intercultural encounters, and asks how their philosophies can contribute to infusing intercultural ethics and practices into curriculum theorizing. First, it explores selected works of medieval Muslim philosophers from an intercultural perspective to formulate a dialogical paradigm that informs and enriches Muslim education. Second, it frames intercultural education as a catalyst to guide Muslim communities' interactioTable of Contents1. The Intercultural, Educational, and Interdisciplinary Borderlines 2.

Princeton University Press On the Muslim Question
Book SynopsisIn the post-9/11 West, there is no shortage of strident voices telling us that Islam is a threat to the security, values, way of life, and even existence of the United States and Europe. This title demolishes the notion that there is a "clash of civilizations" between the West and Islam.Trade Review"Is there a clash of civilizations, as Samuel Huntington maintained, between the Muslim world and the West? Norton's response will be of interest to students of geopolitics and Islamic studies."--Kirkus Reviews "She scores many hits, and illuminates the smug racism behind much recent blazoning of Enlightenment values."--Paul Laity, Prospect "Two strengths make Norton's work stand out in the crowded field of books that address Islam and democracy. First is her insistence on considering Islamic voices of the past and present, from medieval philosopher al-Farabi to Qutb and Ramadan, as conversation partners within the Western tradition. Second is her concise rebuttal of prominent philosophers, in particular Jacques Derrida, John Rawls and Slovaj Zizek, each of whom has perceived a danger in the nature of Islam."--Steve Young, Christian Century "Professor Anne Norton of the University of Pennsylvania, is a liberal academic who takes on all the anti-Muslim hysterics, right wing paranoiacs and sloppy thinkers in this measured and profoundly thought-provoking book."--Charles H. Middleburgh, Middleburgh Blog "Anne Norton provides us with a window into the interaction between European versions of modernity and the Islamic experience, drawing attention to how Muslims often face resistance and hatred as they enter into previously constituted elements of European society."--Tikkun "Anne Norton's On the Muslim Question ... is distinguished by moral daring and intellectual perspicacity, that is bold and passionate in tone but also rigorous and academic in substance... Anne Norton's scholarly effort, as much an academic tract as a pamphlet and a political statement, redeems all those promises and amply testifies to the intellectual and moral resources of the academy as well as its integrity."--S. Parvez Manzoor, Muslim World Book Review "Anne Norton ... has written an incisive volume analyzing a question at the heart of a number of contemporary vexing domestic and foreign policy issues. She brings to the task an impressive command of the subject matter as well as exceptional insight and judgment as a political theorist."--Mujeeb Khan, H-Net Reviews "[T]he book is an insightful analysis of the way Islam and Muslims figure in contemporary discourses, and it should be read by students and scholars interested in representations of Islam and Muslims. I recommend it."--Lasse Thomassen, Political Studies Review and Political Theory "This will be excellent and important reading for missiologists, social anthropologists, political scientists, and others."--Bruce Campbell Moyer, Seminary Studies "On the Muslim Question, is an indispensable reading for scholars as well as those interested in understanding the complex relationship between Islam and the West."--Asif Mohiuddin, Islam and Civilisational Renewal "On the Muslim Question combines virtues rarely found in one place. It is scrupulously attentive to the everyday facts about the ways in which the Muslim and non-Muslim worlds interact and devastatingly sharp about the way in which the facts undermine a lot of high-flown commentary on the supposed threat the Muslim world poses to the West...

Transcript Verlag (Re-)Framing the Arab/Muslim: Mediating
Book SynopsisMedia depictions of Arabs and Muslims continue to be framed by images of camels, belly dancers, and dagger-wearing terrorists. But do only Hollywood movies and TV news have the power to frame public discourse? This interdisciplinary study transfers media framing theory to literary studies to show how life writing (re-)frames Orientalist stereotypes. The innovative analysis of the post-9/11 autobiographies "West of Kabul, East of New York", "Letters from Cairo", and "Howling in Mesopotamia" makes a powerful claim to approach literature based on a theory of production and reception, thus enhancing the multi-disciplinary potential of framing theory.Trade Review"Although the book discusses only autobiographiesas an effective reframing tool, it stands out as an astounding monograph about Arab/Muslim American scholarship in general, and will be of use to diverse scholarsin pursuit of ethnic, transnational, and postcolonial studies."

Jessica Kingsley Publishers Muslim Identity in a Turbulent Age: Islamic
Book SynopsisHow can Islam be understood in the context of internal struggles for unity and identity, a rise in anti-Muslim hate crime and continued media portrayals of violence, extremism, warfare and oppression? Looking at Islam as a faith, a whole system with political dimensions and through the lens of Western media, this book sets out to clarify the nature of true Islam and the true nature of Islam.With diverse contributions from Muslims, Christians and individuals with no religious affiliations, this collection of essays respond to the King of Jordan's Amman Message - an initiative seeking to clarify Islam as a religion of peace - in light of recent international events such as the Charlie Hebdo controversy. Presenting fresh perspectives on a frequently misrepresented religion, this book offers a platform for debate about Islam's place within Western culture and political systems, and the role that faith communities can play in seeking peace and reconciliation.Trade ReviewThe book is coming at the right time with a powerful message of hope. By featuring for the first time ever in Europe the richness and the depth of the Amman Message, it gives to everyone - policy makers, media, the public - the tools for a new understanding about Islam and the Muslim World and their true nature. An inspiring call for dialogue, respect and peace. -- Jean-Christophe Bas, Founder and CEO, The Global CompassWe have never more needed a greater understanding of both Islamic extremism and Western Islamophobia than now. This collection of essays is a real contribution to that understanding. Bridges are more difficult to build than walls, and these essays, in their accessible and reflective tones, aim to make a difference more than a point. Their purpose is to ensure that the gift of diversity is not curdled into the curse of division and they know the path to making this happen can only open up by challenging misconceptions on every side. -- Canon Mark Oakley, Chancellor, St Paul’s CathedralIn a world in which ISIS and other terrorists are a global threat and Islamophobia has grown exponentially, Muslim Identity in a Turbulent Age will be welcomed by policymakers and the general public alike. This timely volume discusses and demonstrates the importance of The Amman Message, a major statement by hundreds of major global Muslim leaders and scholars written as a refutation and delegitimation of violent extremism and terrorism in the name of Islam. -- John L. Esposito, University Professor of Religion & International Affairs and author of The Future of IslamHardy, Mughal, and Markiewicz believe the core Islamic identity to be in flux. Muslims search for identity amid an internal struggle for unity in the Muslim world, increases in anti-Muslim hate crimes outside the Muslim world, and continued media portrayals of violence, tyranny, and extremism; the authors observe that it can be difficult for today's Muslim, or non-Muslim, to truly comprehend what Islam is. This book takes up the Amman Message, a statement issued by the king of Jordan in 2004 that calls for tolerance and unity among Muslims, and offers a variety of perspectives from Muslims, Christians, and others about the place of Islam in Western culture and the role that communities of faith can play in pursuing peace. The collection includes a truly diverse array of voices and, consequently, the various contributions vary in quality and impact. However, the work as a whole is a valuable starting point for education, dialogue, and efforts at reconciliation. As Muslims battle over what 'true Islam' is and is not, and anti-Muslim sentiment in the West rises in both frequency and intensity, this book could not be timelier. This accessible, on point, and very useful collection will serve peacemakers at various levels and respects their varying points of view. (Jan.) -- Publishers WeeklyTable of ContentsAcknowledgements.
