This book explores the Pakistani diaspora in a transatlantic
context, enquiring into the ways in which young first- and
second-generation Pakistani Muslim and non-Muslim men resist
hegemonic identity narratives and respond to their marginalised
conditions. Drawing on rich documentary, ethnographic and interview
material gathered in Boston and Dublin, Islam, Race, and Pluralism
in the Pakistani Diaspora introduces the term 'Pakphobia', a
dividing line that is set up to define the places that are safe and
to distinguish 'us' and 'them' in a Pakistani diasporic context.
With a multiple case study design, which accounts for the
heterogeneity of Pakistani populations, the author explores the
language of fear and how this fear has given rise to a 'politics of
fear' whose aim is to distract and divide communities. A rich,
cross-national study of one of the largest minority groups in the
US and Western Europe, this book will appeal to sociologists,
anthropologists, political scientists, and geographers with
interests in race and ethnicity, migration and diasporic
communities.
