Multicultural Politics

Meer over het boek

The book examines the evolving dynamics of religious identity in the context of multiculturalism, particularly focusing on the experiences of Muslims in Britain. It highlights the shift from a black-white racial divide to the complexities of cultural racism and Islamophobia, especially post-9/11. Tariq Modood analyzes the tensions within multicultural advocacy as Muslims strive for equality while challenging secular and liberal norms. He argues that Britain’s history of ethnic pluralism offers valuable insights for navigating the potential Islam-West divide in contemporary society.
