In the aftermath of 9/11 a critical analysis of offending and
victimisation of Asian Muslims is desperately required. Muslims and
Crime addresses this need by means of a comparative criminological
evaluation of British and Pakistani South Asian Muslims. In
addition to providing a succinct review of contemporary studies in
the field, Muzammil Quraishi evaluates issues of offending and
victimization amongst South Asian Muslims; develops an
understanding of Islamic criminal law and its influence on crime
and social control by means of a comparative evaluation between
Britain and Pakistan; explores the nature of Islamophobia and its
impact on South Asian Muslims in Britain and Pakistan; explores the
American 'Critical Race Theory' perspective within British and
Pakistani contexts; and examines the construction of racial
stereotypes during colonial encounters and how far these may be
traced into the post-colonial social terrain. The book will
interest academics in sociology, criminology, race and ethnicity,
and law. The themes explored will also be of significant interest
to practitioners within criminal justice institutions.
