Historically, Muslims faced discrimination based on ethnicity rather than religion. However, contemporary discrimination against Muslims is rooted in different reasons, with events like the Rushdie affair significantly impacting multicultural relations. This study analyzes the evolving multicultural landscape in Britain, exploring the shift from predominantly assimilationist policies to a more mutual process of integration. It delves into the emergence of interfaith dialogue as well as the complexities surrounding the intersection of race, religion, gender, and identity. The research examines two key themes: the discursive positioning of Islam beyond integration and terrorism narratives, and the operationalization of identity by Muslims in various contexts. The study employs empirical methods and cultural studies theories to understand how individual and social practices intersect in this context. By doing so, it contributes to Islamic studies, socio-political studies, and cultural studies, shedding light on the discourses that shape and are shaped by Muslim lives in Britain. The analysis encompasses diverse perspectives, from macro-level societal discourses to micro-level individual actions, thus providing a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted experiences of Muslims in Britain. 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aEthnology$zGreat Britain 606 $aCulture 606 $aIslam 606 $aSociology of Religion 606 $aBritish Culture 606 $aIslam 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aIslam. 615 14$aSociology of Religion. 615 24$aBritish Culture. 615 24$aIslam. 676 $a305.6970941 700 $aDe Rooij$b Laurens$01586065 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910799221203321 996 $aBritish Muslims and Their Discourses$93872335 997 $aUNINA
