Islam in Europe delves into the daily routines of European Muslim
communities in order to provide a better understanding of what it
means to be a European Muslim today. Instead of positing particular
definitions of being Muslim, this volume invites and encourages a
diverse body of 735 informants from Belgium, France, Germany, the
Netherlands and the UK to reflect on who they are and on the
meaning and place Islam has in such considerations. Drawing upon
extensive fieldwork and suggesting novel ways of seeing the
phenomenon of European Islam and the continent's Muslim
communities, Islam in Europe examines how through their practices,
discourses, face to face and mediated interaction, European Muslims
construct notions or identity, agency, solidarity and belonging, or
how they negotiate and redefine religion, tradition, authority and
cultural authenticity. Theoretically and methodologically
innovative, Islam in Europe makes a significant contribution to
better understanding European Islam and Europe's Muslims.
