Reviews
"This is a very interesting and well-grounded bookbased both on primary and secondary data and makes it a great work on Islam inthe west, discussing all the major themes that dominate public debates, forexample, liberalism, secularism, terrorism, integration policies, and so on. ... addressesprincipally to the academic community (scholars, researchers, students) whowill absolutely be benefitted both from the analysis as well as from theappendices and exhaustive notes at the end of the book." (Alexandros Sakellariou,Nordic Journal of Migration Research, Vol. 54 (4), 2015) Honourable mention for the World Award for the Book of the Year of the Islamic Republic of Iran "Cesari shines in presenting the material in a clear and direct manner that will appeal to a wide range of readers. At around 150 pages of information packed text, the book is both accessible and illuminating. Much as the Gallup poll's project[2] offered the first major undertaking on the opinions of Muslims in countries with significant Muslim populations, Cesari's book presents the first comprehensive investigation on the opinions of Muslims in the West. By adding the voices of Muslims rather than simply analyzing Islam in the West, Cesari has provided an important contribution in deconstructing the myth of the incompatibility between Islam and liberal democratic societies." - Council for European Studies, Reviews and Critical Commentary "This book is an eye-opener that denies all sides the luxury of willful ignorance or unchallenged ideological projection. Bold, sophisticated and almost embarrassingly informative, Jocelyne Cesari's effort is certain to elevate the discourse around one of the most important relationships of our time: that between Muslims and their Western compatriots." - Sherman A.

Synopsis
Jocelyne Cesari examines the idea that Islam might threaten the core values of the West through testimonies from Muslims in France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the US. Her book is an unprecedented exploration of Muslim religious and political life based on several years of field work in Europe and in the United States., Jocelyne Cesari examines this question through the lens of testimonies from Muslims in France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the United States. Her book is an unprecedented exploration of Muslim religious and political life based on several years of field work in Europe and in the United States. It provides original insights into the ways Muslims act as believers and citizens and into the specifics of western liberalism and secularism, particularly after 9/11, and how the specific constraints of Islam in secular spaces trigger a western politics of fear. Its unique interdisciplinary scope allows for an in depth analysis of data polls, surveys, political discourses, policy programs, interviews, and focus groups with Muslims.

- _***i (66)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGood shipping, packaging, and was as described. God value as well, especially with the content of the cd. I am happy to have found this cd of one of the most important animal activists. In the cd, Gary Yourofsky shares the moral imperative of granting animals their negative rights. Like the right not to be enslaved and murdered! He shares the vegan message, a message that in my view, grants animals the same rights as human beings if they were to be trait equalized.PETA Gary Yourofsky Liberator To Educator CD (#266689252823)
