The politics of inclusion is about more than hate, exclusion, and
discrimination. It is a window into the moral character of
contemporary liberal democracies. The Struggle for Inclusion
introduces a new method to the study of public opinion: to probe,
step by step, how far non-Muslim majorities are willing to be
inclusive, where they draw the line, and why they draw it there and
not elsewhere. Those committed to liberal democratic values and
their concerns are the focus, not those advocating exclusion and
intolerance. Notwithstanding the turbulence and violence of the
last decade over issues of immigration and of Muslims in the West,
the results of this study demonstrate that the largest number of
citizens in contemporary liberal democracies are more open to
inclusion of Muslims than has been recognized. Not less important,
the book reveals limits on inclusion that follow from the friction
between liberal democratic values. This pioneering work thus brings
to light both pathways to progress and polarization traps.
