Islam and Political-Cultural Europe

Islam and Political-Cultural Europe builds on its predecessor, Islam, Europe and Emerging Legal Issues, by continuing to identify the sometimes confusing and often contentious new challenges that arise as Islam settles deeper into Europe but follows those issues out of the courtroom and into daily life and institutions.This book presents an overview, as well as categorical analysis, of already experienced and anticipated cultural clashes. By critiquing past and recent assimilation efforts in the fields of education, finance, and security, the expert contributors offer prospective solutions to problems whose growing relevance demands attention. The result is a valuable tool for all, both from within Europe and from without, seeking to understand the far-reaching implications of combining cultures, the struggles of the Muslim-Christian-secular transition up to this point, and the progress which the future promises.
