Islam and the West : reflections from Australia edited by Shahram Akbarzadeh, and Samina Yasmeen Published by UNSW Press (2005) |
Book description
In response to recent events, Australian scholars examine the prospects of
conflict and cooperation between the Muslim world and the West and the future of
Muslim communities in Australia. The essays fall into three thematic sections:
the broad international context, with reference to the repercussions of the war
in Iraq and the initiatives launched by Muslims, namely the Organization of
Islamic Conference, and the current discourse among radical Islamic groups about
prospects of "conflict" between the Muslim world and the West; the implications
of growing Islamic agitation and the heightened sense of insecurity for Muslim
states in South and Southeast Asia; the challenges faced by Muslim communities
in Australia and implications for interethnic relations and asylum-seekers.
