Political and cultural representations of MuslimsIslam in the pluralFlood, Christopher.textbibliographyElectronic books.Electronic books.neLeidenBostonBrill2012monographiceng1 online resource.Relations between Muslims and non-Muslims have received unprecedented attention since 9/11. In many predominantly non-Muslim countries intense debates have focused on international relations with Muslim-majority states, but dilemmas of national policy and practice in incorporating domestic Muslim minorities have also provoked heated argument. Meanwhile, within predominantly Muslim societies, and within Muslim diasporas, relationships with non-Muslims have posed pressing questions about compatibility, antagonism or adaptation of beliefs, identities and customs. The essays forming this multidisciplinary collection analyse concerns arising from clashing perceptions of Muslims in the political and cultural spheres: the majority of chapters deal with non-Muslim representations of Muslims, but several chapters reverse the perspective by examining Muslims' own understandings of their relationships with non-Muslim societies.0.edited by Christopher Flood Step.Includes bibliographical references and index.MuslimsNon-Islamic countriesMuslimsPublic opinionIslam and politicsIslam21st centurySOCIAL SCIENCEDiscrimination & Race RelationsSOCIAL SCIENCEMinority StudiesIslamIslam and politicsMuslimsMuslimsPublic opinionNon-Islamic countriesMuslimerMuslimerattityder tillIslam och politikIslam -- 21st centuryIslam and politicsMuslims -- Non-Muslim countriesMuslims -- Public opinion
