This book unearths new knowledge and challenges existing paradigms
in relation to the integration of minority communities. It
comprehensively reflects upon the complexity of recognition
experiences and integration challenges faced by Muslim individuals
and groups in Europe. By focusing on universal recognition themes
related to experiences within personal relationships, legal
relations, religion and civil society, it makes an essential
contribution to a deeper understanding of Muslim life in the West.
It offers a reconsideration of everyday lives of Muslims in Europe
by drawing on the paradigm of recognition. Exploring universal
themes, it demonstrates the complexity of recognitive relations by
examining how Muslim individuals perceive the ways they are
recognised, or misrecognised, within various spheres of everyday
interaction. It sheds light on the ways in which forms of
recognition affect identity formation and social relations more
generally, and the broader ramifications that arise from such forms
of misrecognition. This book draws on Honneth's critical social
theory of recognition to frame a range of grassroots interviews and
focused discussion groups. Grounded in qualitative research and
with an emancipatory intent, The Lived Experiences of Muslims in
Europe challenges both the assumption that minority groups simply
seek to have their particular culture and associated beliefs
endorsed by a majority, and the security paradigm that narrowly
views Muslims in Europe through the lens of political extremism.
