Now in a new format with a more current and topical focus on a
country level. While the strength of the Yearbook has always been
the comprehensive geographical remit, starting with volume 7 the
reports primarily concentrate on more specific and topical
information. The most current research available on public debates,
transnational links, legal or political changes that have affected
the Muslim population, and activities and initiatives of Muslim
organizations from surveyed countries are available throughout the
Yearbook. At the end of each country report, an annual overview of
statistical and demographic data is presented in an appendix. By
using a table format, up-to-date information is quickly accessible
for each country. To see how these changes affect the articles,
please read this sample chapter about Austria. The Yearbook of
Muslims in Europe is an essential resource for analysis of Europe's
dynamic Muslim populations. Featuring up-to-date research from
forty-six European countries, the reports provide cumulative
knowledge of on-going trends and developments around Muslims in
different European countries. In addition to offering a relevant
framework for original research, the Yearbook of Muslims in Europe
provides an invaluable source of reference for government and NGO
officials, journalists, policy-makers, and related research
institutions.
