Beyond Accommodation - Everyday Narratives of Muslim Canadians (Hardcover)

Problems - of integration, failed political participation, and
requests for various kinds of accommodation - seem to dominate the
research on minority Muslims in Western nations. Beyond
Accommodation offers a different perspective, showing how Muslim
Canadians successfully navigate and negotiate their religiosity.
The authors critique the model of reasonable accommodation,
suggesting that it disempowers religious minorities by implicitly
privileging Christianity and by placing the onus on minorities to
make formal requests for accommodation. Through interviews, Muslim
Canadians show that informal negotiation takes place all the time;
scholars, however, have not been paying attention. This book
proposes an alternative picture of how religious difference is
woven into the fabric of Canadian society.
