Xenophobia and Islamophobia in Europe by Raymond Taras, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

European anti-Muslim attitudes: the voice of public protest against out-of-touch elites? Are anti-Muslim attitudes becoming the spectre that is haunting Europe? Is Islamophobia as widespread and virulent as is made out? Or do some EU societies appear more prejudiced than others? To what extentare European fears about unmanaged immigration the basis for scapegoating Muslim communities?And is there an anti-elitest dimension to Europeans' protest about rapid demographic change occurring in their countries? This cross-national analysis of Islamophobia looks at these questions in an innovative, even-handed way, steering clear of politically-correct cliches and stereotypes. Itcautions that Islamophobia is a serious threat to European values and norms, and must be tackled by future immigration and integration policy. | Xenophobia and Islamophobia in Europe by Raymond Taras, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
