Muslim Communities in the New Europe (Ithaca Press paperbacks)

"This book is the best available survey of contemporary developments affecting the Muslim communities in the new Europe". -- Dr Hugh Miall, The Richardson Institute This important study investigates the evolving fate of Muslim communities within the new Europe in separate country chapters for both Eastern and Western Europe, by contributors from West and East. How does the situation of Muslims in Western Europe (mainly immigrant) and Eastern Europe (mainly indigenous) compare? What does the case of the 'new' immigration countries -- Scandinavia, Spain and Italy -- tell us? What is the effect of governmental policies and citizenship rules? How important are economic factors? What international linkages come into play? How is public opinion affected by these and other factors?
