M.Siddique Seddon, Dilwar Hussain & Nadeem Malik
Islam is now Britain’s second largest religion with a significant community presence for nearly fifty years. But how and where do British Muslims place themselves in the context of nationality and citizenship and as participants in wider society? This book examines the various patterns of Muslim migration and community formation and explores notions of identity, belonging and cultural difference. The authors question conventional definitions of citizenship and frameworks of integration, analysing the legal, social and political factors inhibiting social inclusion, civil engagement and participatory politics among British Muslims. The book will be of interest to British Muslims and all those who wish to engage with this dynamic, diverse and often misunderstood community.
