While every minority community is distinctive, the experiences of these groups show that a state's authoritarian rule, uncompromising attitude towards expressions of particularism, and failure to offer tools for inclusion are all responsible for the politicization and radicalization of minority identities. The place of Islam in this process is complex: while its initial pluralistic role was transformed through the creation of the modern nation-state, the radicalization of society in turn radicalized and politicized minority identities. Minority groups, though at times possessing a measure of political autonomy, remain intensely vulnerable. 410 0$aStudies in nationalism and ethnic conflict. 606 $aMinorities$zIslamic countries 606 $aEthnicity$zIslamic countries 606 $aEthnology$zIslamic countries 615 0$aMinorities 615 0$aEthnicity 615 0$aEthnology 676 $a305.5/6/091767 700 $aShatzmiller$b Maya, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0642930 701 $aShatzmiller$b Maya$0642930 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782185103321 996 $aNationalism and minority identities in Islamic societies$93760994 997 $aUNINA
