Sommario/riassunto

How does Europe perceive the Muslims living in its region since the events of September 11, 2001?Who are these men and women, of immigrant background, difficult to name, to count and whose demands in terms of citizenship and identity destabilize and worry? The contributions of this book highlight the new dimensions of the construction, in Europe, of a society and a political space where the multicultural seeks to have its legitimacy recognized. The authors each study the link between Islam from a different angle. and politics (discrimination and various forms of exclusion, Islam in a closed environment such as school or prison, dual identity and citizen and



institutional registrations).The reflections conducted here show that we have gone well beyond the classical analysis of integration. Because today, despite a cautious and heated debate, Muslim culture is gradually seeking and finding its place in French and European societies.
