Muslim Youth in the Diaspora

- Challenging Extremism through Popular Culture

Über Muslim Youth in the Diaspora

This book takes up the hotly-debated issue of Muslim youth identity in western countries from the standpoint of popular culture. It proposes that in the context of Islamophobia and pervasive moral panic, young Muslims frame up their identity in relation to external conditions that only see `good¿ and `bad¿ Muslims, on both sides of the ideological fence between Islam and the West. Indeed, by attempting to break down the `good¿ versus `bad¿ Muslim dichotomy that largely derives from western media reports, as well as political commentary, Muslim Youth in the Diaspora: Challenging Extremism through Popular Culture will enlighten the reader. It illuminates the way in which diasporic Muslim youth engage with, and are affected by, the radical Islamist meta-narrative. It examines their popular culture and online activity, their gendered sense of self, and much more.
