Thinking through anti, post, and decolonial theories, this book
examines, analyses, and conceptualises 'visibly Muslim' Lebanese
women's lived experiences of discrimination, assault, wounding, and
erasure. Based on in-depth research alongside over 100 Sunni and
Shia participant between 2017 and 2019 it situates these
experiences at the intersection of the local and the global and
argues for their conceptualisation as a form of structural and
lived anti-Muslim racism. In doing this, it discusses the
convergences and divergences of anti-Muslim racism in Lebanon with
anti-Muslim racism in other parts of both the global north and the
global south. It examines the production of this racialisation as
well as its workings across spheres of public, private, work, and
state - including an analysis of internalised self-hate. It further
explores various forms of resistance and negotiation and the
contemporary possibilities and impossibilities of working beyond
the epistemic framework of Eurocentric modernity. As the first
in-depth and extensive study of anti-Muslim racism within
Muslim-majority and Arab-majority spaces, it offers an urgent and
timely redress to multiple gaps and biases in the study of the
Muslim-majority and Arab-majority worlds as well as racialisation
broadly and Islamophobia specifically.
