Download or read book Localizing Islam in Europe written by Ahmet Yükleyen and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twentieth century, Muslim minorities emerged in Europe seeking work, a refuge from conflict, and higher life standards. As a result, there are now more than 12 million Muslims in Western Europe. As these immigrants became permanent residents, the Islamic communities they developed had to respond to their European context, reinterpreting Islam in accordance with local conditions. In Localizing Islam in Europe, Yükleyen brings this adaptation to light, demonstrating how Islam and Europe have shaped one another and challenging the idea that Islamic beliefs are inherently antithetical to European secular, democratic, and pluralist values. Yükleyen compares five different religious communities among Muslim immigrants in the Netherlands and Germany that represent a spectrum from moderate to revolutionary Islamic opinions. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, he finds that, despite differences in goals and beliefs, these communities play an intermediary role, negotiating between the social and religious needs of Muslims and the socioeconomic, legal, and political context of Europe. Yükleyen’s rich ethnography shows that there is no single form of assimilated and privatized “European Islam” but rather Islamic communities and their interpretations and practices that localize Islam in Europe.

Download or read book Muslims in Rotterdam written by At Home in Europe Project and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through engagement with policymakers and communities, Muslims in Rotterdam examines the political, social, and economic participation of Muslim communities living in Rotterdam--the Netherlands' second largest city and home to almost 600,000 people, just under half of whom have an immigrant background. Focusing on the district of Feijenoord, the report explores the primary concerns of both Muslim and non-Muslim inhabitants and assesses whether local policymakers have understood and met these needs. While recognizing that the Rotterdam City Council has devised a number of initiatives seeking the greater inclusion of its Muslim and other minority groups, further challenges remain, especially in the areas of education and employment. There is also the challenge of growing extremism among segments of the native Dutch population. The report offers a number of good practices across various sectors in Rotterdam and a set of recommendations in the areas of consultation and participation, social protection, and safety and security.

Book excerpt: "Through engagement with policymakers and communities, Muslims in Hamburg examines the political, social, and economic participation of Muslim communities living in Hamburg, Germany--a city known for its long history of immigration and where inter-religious dialogue and inclusion form a visible part of the daily life of the city. The report focuses on the district of Hamburg-Mitte, offering new insights and, possibly for the first time, portraying the city from the perspective of its Muslim population. The report outlines and examines Muslim experiences in the areas of education, employment, health, housing and social protection, citizenship and political participation, policing and security, media, belonging, identity and interactions. While recognizing the local administration's efforts and successes in enhancing integration, the report offers a series of recommendations for local and national authorities, Muslim communities and other minority groups, NGOs and community organizations, the media and broader civil society to take this further."--Publisher description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book generally discusses three main topics connected to the situation of Muslims in Dutch society. First of all, attention is given to the subject of faith and rituals such as the existing mystical orders, mosque sermons and the institutionalization of ritual slaughter. The second subject deals with Islam and the second-generation Muslims in the Netherlands. In this context, the situation of the so-called runaway girls and education in general are discussed. Special attention is given to the development and functioning of Islamic schools and to the education in one's own language and culture. The last topic deals with Muslim organizations, their development and role in the emancipation of these religious groups in Dutch society. Furthermore, obstacles hindering the establishment of a Muslim council on a national level are thoroughly discussed. This book can be of interest to various categories of people, such as scholars (theologians, social scientists, lawyers), policy makers, and those who, through their profession, are in regular contact with members of the Muslim community in the Netherlands.

Download or read book Muslim Community Organizations in the West written by Mario Peucker and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book focusses on the historical emergence and contemporary challenges of Muslim community organizations and their struggle for recognition as ordinary voices in multiethnic and multi-religious civil societies of Western democracies. It offers a range of different perspectives on how Muslim communities position themselves and navigate the social and political landscape shaped by, on the one hand, normalization of ethno-religious diversity and, on the other, ongoing misrecognition and essentialisation of Muslims in the West. The contributions from internationally acclaimed scholars as well as emerging researchers from Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Switzerland and Australia shine new light on both country-specific similarities and divergences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Organizing Muslims and Integrating Islam in Germany, Kerstin Rosenow-Williams analyzes the challenges faced by Islamic organizations in Germany since the beginning of the 21st century. Outlining the expectations German political actors have of Islamic organizations and the internal interests of these organizations, the author illustrates that organizational response strategies involve patterns not only of adaptation, but also of decoupling and protest. The study introduces an innovative research framework based on organizational sociology and provides empirical insights into three major Islamic umbrella organizations (DITIB, IGMG, ZMD) and their relationships with other actors. The comprehensive analysis of the German institutional environment and related developments in Islamic organizations makes this study highly relevant to scholars and politicians, as well as the general public.

Download or read book Against Islamophobia written by Arno Tausch and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there is a never-ending debate on Islamism, Islamist terrorism and the identity of Europe vis-á-vis growing Muslim communities in Europe, there are hardly any solid cross-national data being presented on the real extent of the Islamist threat facing Europe, and on the social conditions that lead to Islamist radicalism. By and large, our rigorous quantitative results, based on the first systematic use of the Muslim community data contained in the 'European Social Survey' (ESS) all support a socio-liberal view of "migration" and "integration", compatible with much of the rest of current European political economic thinking regarding the future alternatives for the European Union, and contradict the very extended current alarmist political discourse in Western Europe.
