Using recontextualisation theory, the author examines the relations between educational governance, social interests and cultural epistemology as they pertain specifically to symbolic constructs. In the aftermath of September 11 2001, the teaching of Islam has assumed geopolitical significance, coming under close scrutiny internationally. Much of this attention has been directed at madrasas in Muslim countries, yet Islam in schooling contexts in the West has remained a blind-spot. In the UK, heightened anxieties about "home-grown" terrorists point to the need for a better understanding of Islam in both state and faith schools. Shiraz Thobani explores the role played by national and local policies and pedagogic practices in the production of school-based Islam in a secular, liberal context and makes an important contribution to the sociology of the curriculum and the study of religious education."--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aIslam$xStudy and teaching$zGreat Britain 606 $aEducation$xCurricula$zGreat Britain 606 $aEducation and state$zGreat Britain 615 0$aIslam$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aEducation$xCurricula 615 0$aEducation and state 676 $a297.07/041 700 $aThobani$b Shiraz$01719920 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808674603321 996 $aIslam in the school curriculum$94118167 997 $aUNINA
