Islamophobia examines the online and offline experiences of hate
crime against Muslims, and the impact upon victims, their families
and wider communities. Based on the first national hate crime study
to examine the nature, extent and determinants of Muslim victims of
hate crime in the virtual and physical worlds, it highlights the
multidimensional relationship between online and offline
anti-Muslim attacks, especially in a global context. It includes
the voices of victims themselves which leads to a more nuanced
understanding of anti-Muslim hate crime and prevention of future
anti-Muslim hate crime as well as strategies for future prevention.
Islamophobic hate crimes have increased significantly following the
terrorist attacks of 9/11 and 7/7. More recently, the rhetoric
surrounding Trump's election and presidency, Brexit, the rise of
far-right groups and ISIS-inspired terrorist attacks worldwide have
promoted a climate where Islamophobia and anti-Muslim sentiments
have become 'legitimised'. The Routledge International Handbook of
Islamophobia provides a comprehensive single-volume collection of
key readings in Islamophobia. Consisting of 32 chapters accessibly
written by scholars, policy makers and practitioners, it seeks to
examine the nature, extent, implications of, and responses to
Islamophobic hate crime both nationally and internationally. This
volume will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students as
well as postdoctoral researchers interested in fields such as
Criminology, Victimology, Sociology, Social Policy, Religious
Studies, Law and related Social Sciences subjects. It will also
appeal to scholars, policy makers and practitioners working in and
around the areas of Islamophobic hate crimes.

Rates of hate crime within football have been increasing, despite
the visibility of anti-racist actions such as ‘taking the
knee’. With a unique collection of testimonies, this book shows
that hostility is a daily occurrence for some professional football
players, ranging from online threats to physical intimidation and
violence at football matches. Bringing a range of perspectives to
this widespread problem, leading academics, practitioners and
policy makers shed light on the best strategies to tackle racism,
homophobia, transphobia and misogyny in football.
