What is The Muslim Question in Europe : Political Controversies and Public Philosophies about?

An Estimated Twenty Million Muslims Now Reside In Europe, Mostly As A Result Of Large-scale Postwar Immigration. In The Muslim Question In Europe, Peter O'brien Challenges The Popular Notion That The Hostilities Concerning Immigration—which Continues To Provoke Debates About Citizenship, Headscarves, Secularism, And Terrorism—are A Clash Between Islam And The West. Rather, He Explains, The Vehement Controversies Surrounding European Muslims Are Better Understood As Persistent, Unresolved Intra-european Tensions. O'brien Contends That The Best Way To Understand The Politics Of State Accommodation Of European Muslims Is Through The Lens Of Three Competing Political Ideologies: Liberalism, Nationalism, And Postmodernism. These Three Broadly Understood Philosophical Traditions Represent The Most Influential Normative Forces In The Politics Of Immigration In Europe Today. He Concludes That Muslim Europeans Do Not Represent A Monolithic Anti-western Bloc Within Europe. Although They Vehemently Disagree Among Themselves, It Is Along The Same Basic Liberal, Nationalist, And Postmodern Contours As Non-muslim Europeans. -- Provided By Publisher.
