Today there are at least 15 million people in Western Europe who
adhere to the Muslim faith or have close cultural or other
affiliations with the Islamic world. Indeed, in the course of a few
decades, Islam has emerged as Europe's second religion, after
Christianity. What is remarkable about this phenomenon is that it
has occurred gradually, generally peacefully, and, in some measure,
as a consequence of the economic needs of European countries.
Despite some difficulties, Islam is slowly but inexorably becoming
part of Europe's social, cultural, and, to some degree, political
landscape. The question today is not can Islam be uprooted and
expelled from European soil, as was done six centuries ago during
the period of "Reconquista" in Spain, but rather what is the best
way of accommodating Islam in Europe and establishing cooperative
relations between Muslims and the followers of other religious
and/or secular value systems. This volume examines the situation
and attempts to provide answers to these questions through a
country-by-country analysis by recognized experts from each of the
Western European nations examined. An invaluable resource and text
for scholars, students, and other researchers involved with Islamic
and European Studies.
