جزییات کتاب
With contributions by leading researchers from many countries in Western Europe and North America, this book brings a new, transatlantic perspective to this growing field and establishes an important basis for further research in the area. It addresses several essential questions about Islamophobia, including:
* what exactly is Islamophobia and how can we measure it?
* how is it related to similar social phenomena, such as xenophobia?
* how widespread are Islamophobic attitudes, and how can they be explained?
* how are Muslims different from other outgroups and what role does terrorism and 9/11 play?
Islamophobia in the West will be of interest to students and scholars of sociology, religious studies, social psychology, political science, ethnology, and legal science.
