Identity, Education and Belonging examines the social and
educational experiences of Arab and Muslim Australian youth against
a wider political backdrop. Arab and Muslim Australian youth have
long faced considerable social obstacles in their journey towards
full integration, but as the discourse of insecurity surrounding
these conflicts intensifies, so too do the difficulties they face
in Australian society. Events such as the war in Iraq, Australia's
presence in Afghanistan and perceptions of Iran as a nuclear
threat-together with domestic events such as the Cronulla
riots-place Arabs and Muslims at the centre of global instability
and exacerbate feelings of tension and anxiety. At a time when fear
and confusion permeate their experiences, Identity, Education and
Belonging is an all-important study of the lives of Muslim and Arab
youth in Australia.
