Abstract

The expression of an Islamic political radicalism in Britain has been one of the most dramatic developments in recent decades. Islamic Radicalism and Multicultural Politics explores the nature of this phenomenon by analysing the origins of Islam and its historical contact with Western Europe and Britain, and the emergence of Islamic political radicalism in the Muslim world and in the West.

Abstract

Explores ethnicity, politics and Islam in Turkey in the 21st-centuryNew perspectives on ethnic relations, Islam and neoliberalism have emerged in Turkey since the rise of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) in 2002. Placing the period within its historical and contemporary context, Tahir Abbas argues that what it is to be ethnically, religiously and culturally Turkish has been transformed. He explores how issues of political trust, social capital and intolerance towards minorities have characterised Turkey in the early years of the 21st-century. He shows how a radical neoliberal economic and conservative outlook has materialised, leading to a clash over the religious, political and cultural direction of Turkey. These conflicts are defining the future of the nation.Key featuresUses original qualitative data and observational analysis of the Gezi Park protests of 2013 and of a Kurdish community in the southeast of Turkey to explore aspects of political resistance and mobilisationAnalyses attitudes and perceptions of Turkish respondents based on survey data from the European Social SurveyIncludes case studies to provide an insight on intergroup relations, social conflict and cultural cohesion in TurkeyOffers an important contribution to the discussion of Islamism, capitalism and democracy in Turkey

Abstract

In "Political Muslims," Abbas, Hamid, and their contributors seek to provide a new perspective on Muslim youth, presenting them as agents of creative social change--as emerging adults who are participating in cultural, organizational, community, and socially oriented projects to positively influence socio-political transformation in response to the everyday challenges they face. Each case study brings the reader to a new geographic location, providing original contributions on how a new generation of Muslim youth are engaging in issues relating to their faith, gender, identity, community, social injustice, and globalization, and confronting social change and the negative impacts of Islamophobia and radicalization.

Abstract

"This thought-provoking and provocative interview-based study fills an important academic lacuna in exploring the Dutch Muslim community’s views on public discourse, government policies, and media portrayal regarding (counter-)radicalization." —Rik Peels, Associate Professor, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the Netherlands "The authors offer a vivid and necessary analysis, and critically reflect on the relation between Islamophobia and radicalisation. The book is, therefore, an essential point of departure for scholars, students, policymakers, and journalists." —Martijn de Koning, Associate Professor, Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands This book examines how Muslim communities in the Netherlands perceive and experience extremism, counter-radicalisation policies, and Islamophobia. It is based on the findings of two original qualitative research investigations conducted in the Netherlands, in which thirty scholars, imams, mosque board members, and representatives of Islamic organisations were interviewed. The book delves into topics such as the politicisation of the Dutch media, misunderstandings about ‘radicalisation’ and how they contribute to securitisation, and how Dutch Muslims have been confronted with the dilemma of dealing with radicalisation on their own, while also facing further vilification, securitisation, and Islamophobia, all of which continue to be issues. Additionally, the study examines the significance of ‘radical Salafi’ ideology and recruitment techniques as seen by Dutch Muslim communities. Liselotte Welten is an independent researcher based in the Netherlands. Tahir Abbas is Professor of Radicalisation Studies at the Institute of Security and Global Affairs at Leiden University in The Hague, the Netherlands. .
