Islamophobia is not specific to France but nowhere does it dominate public debate in the same way. This book offers a sharp, accessible examination of the reasons why.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Islamophobia in France is on the increase. Muslims are being subjected to unprecedented scrutiny of what they wear, eat and say. Racist acts and rhetoric are increasingly common. Leading public figures meanwhile continue to contest the use of the term "Islamophobia." Republic of Islamophobia argues that such intolerance has fed off the adoption of an authoritarian neoliberal outlook by mainstream French political parties, a process that has accelerated since the jihadist attacks in Paris in January and November 2015. Jim Wolfreys describes the development of a "new secularism" that targets Muslims and gives a respectable veneer to racism. He examines how this secularism has been championed by the Front National's Marine Le Pen, and how it has divided the anti-racist movement and undermined the left's capacity to contest bigotry. Techniques from France's colonial era, he argues, are being adapted to stigmatize Muslims. Drawing on interviews conducted in Paris, Wolfreys highlights the work of independent grassroots campaigns and activists organizing to confront racism. Informed by their experience, he aims to provide tools for those confronting the wider backlash against Muslims that is embedding itself in Europe and the US.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Why does Islamophobia dominate public debate in France?Islamophobia in France is rising, with Muslims subjected to unprecedented scrutiny of what they wear, eat and say. Championed by Marine Le Pen and drawing on the French colonial legacy, France's 'new secularism' gives racism a respectable veneer. Jim Wolfreys exposes the dynamic driving this intolerance: a society polarized by inequality, and the authoritarian neoliberalism of the French political mainstream.This officially sanctioned Islamophobia risks going unchallenged. It has divided the traditional anti-racist movement and undermined the left's opposition to bigotry. Wolfreys deftly unravels the problems facing those trying to confront today's rise in racism.Republic of Islamophobia illuminates both the uniqueness of France's anti-Muslim backlash and its broader implications for the West. Drawing on interviews on the ground, the author considers the legacy of colonialism, the notion of citizenship in the Republic, the ongoing debates over burkinis, hijabs, etc. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
