In 2010, the East London Mosque celebrated its centenary. One hundred years earlier, the Aga Khan and Syed Ameer Ali had convened a public meeting at the London Ritz Hotel, where they set out a strategy for the construction of a mosque in London that would be 'worthy of the capital of the British Empire'. The Mosque, however, took a long time to materialise. From the Commercial Road in the East End of London in which it was eventually first set up in 1941, it moved to Fieldgate Street and on to the Whitechapel Road in 1985. Through the lens of the original Minutes and related documents, Professor Ansari takes us on the fascinating journey of how the newly emerging confident Muslim community of the early twentieth century and major figures of the British establishment reached out to one another, each looking to nurture the development of this new multicultural society.

This volume focuses on how the far right’s views of Islam have been increasingly co-opted by both liberal and conservative parties and woven into the policies of Western governments over the past two decades. The unprecedented influence of xenophobic and Islamophobic parties, whether in coalition with governments or recipients of the popular vote, reflects a major realignment of forces and a danger to the Western core values of human rights and equality. From the Far Right to the Mainstream explores how Islamophobia has moved to the mainstream of Western policy making, and the role that the media has played.

La réflexion sur la définition d’une « identité », quelle soit nationale, groupale ou communautaire, et, en contrepoint, les difficultés engendrées par la reconnaissance de multiples formes de « diversité » ont pris une place centrale dans le débat public de la plupart des pays européens au cours des dernières années. Ces questions font par ailleurs l’objet d’un nombre croissant de créations artistiques, particulièrement révélatrices des tensions inhérentes au double mouvement d’affirmation et de différenciation identitaires. La question de l’exil et de l’intégration soulevée par l’intensification des flux de migration internationale contribue à mettre en évidence les paradoxes de la rencontre, voire de la confrontation, entre maints aspects de la culture d’origine et de la culture du pays d’accueil. Cet ouvrage aborde les thèmes de l’identité et de la diversité en croisant les regards des chercheurs en sciences sociales et littérature contemporaine avec ceux d’acteurs de la « diversité » dans une perspective comparative internationale, et vise à proposer des pistes de réflexion sur ces notions controversées, fluctuantes, polymorphes.
