Recenzii

“This is a very interesting and well-grounded bookbased both on primary and secondary data and makes it a great work on Islam inthe west, discussing all the major themes that dominate public debates, forexample, liberalism, secularism, terrorism, integration policies, and so on. … addressesprincipally to the academic community (scholars, researchers, students) whowill absolutely be benefitted both from the analysis as well as from theappendices and exhaustive notes at the end of the book.” (Alexandros Sakellariou,Nordic Journal of Migration Research, Vol. 54 (4), 2015)
Honourable mention for the World Award for the Book of the Year of the Islamic Republic of Iran
"Cesari shines in presenting the material in a clear and direct manner that will appeal to a wide range of readers. At around 150 pages of information packed text, the book is both accessible and illuminating. Much as the Gallup poll's project[2] offered the first major undertaking on the opinions of Muslims in countries with significant Muslim populations, Cesari's book presents the first comprehensive investigation on the opinions of Muslims in the West. By adding the voices of Muslims rather than simply analyzing Islam in the West, Cesari has provided an important contribution in deconstructing the myth of the incompatibility between Islam and liberal democratic societies." - Council for European Studies, Reviews and Critical Commentary
"This book is an eye-opener that denies all sides the luxury of willful ignorance or unchallenged ideological projection. Bold, sophisticated and almost embarrassingly informative, Jocelyne Cesari's effort is certain to elevate the discourse around one of the most important relationships of our time: that between Muslims and their Western compatriots." - Sherman A. Jackson, King Faisal Chair of Islamic Thought and Culture, The University of Southern California, and author of Islam and the Blackamerican: Looking Towards the Third Resurrection
