The management of social, religious and ethnic diversity is a key
social policy concern in Britain, and Muslims in particular have
become a focus of attention in recent years. This timely and
topical volume examines the position of Muslims in Britain and how
they are changing and making social, political and religious space.
With contributions from world renowned scholars on British Muslims
and from policy makers writing on issues of concern to Muslims and
others alike, the book explores how British Muslims are changing
social and religious spaces such as mosques and the role of women,
engaging in politics, creating media and other resources, and thus
developing new perspectives on Islam and transforming Muslim
society from within. Chapters cover issues of religion and
politics, Britishness, governance, parallel lives, gender issues,
religion in civic space, ethnicity, and inter ethnic and religious
relations, as well as the role of intellectuals, chaplains and
activists in reforming Islam and renovating the British political
landscape. Providing a broad and comprehensive examination of the
key issues surrounding Muslims in the UK, this book will be a
valuable resource for students, lecturers and researchers in
sociology, social policy, geography, politics, Islamic studies and
other related disciplines.
