eBook
Islamophobia/Islamophilia : beyond the politics of enemy and friend
2010
Overview
Islamophobia is a term that has been widely applied to anti-Muslim
ideas and actions, especially since 9/11. The contributors to this provocative
volume explore and critique the usefulness of the concept for understanding contexts
ranging from the Middle Ages to the modern day. Moving beyond familiar explanations
such as good Muslim/bad Muslim stereotypes or the clash of civilizations, they
describe Islamophobia's counterpart, Islamophilia, which deploys similar oppositions
in the interest of fostering public acceptance of Islam. Contributors address topics
such as conflicts over Islam outside and within Muslim communities in North America,
Europe, the Middle East, and South Asia; the cultural politics of literature, humor,
and urban renewal; and religious conversion to Islam.
