Five months later, thousands of Muslims inundated the newspaper with outpourings of anger and grief by phone, email, and fax; from Asia to Europe Muslims took to the streets in protest. This book is the first comprehensive investigation of the conflict that aroused impassioned debates around the world on freedom of expression, blasphemy, and the nature of modern Islam. Jytte Klausen interviewed politicians in the Middle East, Muslim leaders in Europe, the Danish editors and cartoonists, and the Danish imam who started the controversy. Following the winding trail of protests across the world, she deconstructs the arguments and motives that drove the escalation of the increasingly globalized conflict. She concludes that the Muslim reaction to the cartoons was not-as was commonly assumed-a spontaneous emotional reaction arising out of the clash of Western and Islamic civilizations. Rather it was orchestrated, first by those with vested interests in elections in Denmark and Egypt, and later by Islamic extremists seeking to destabilize governments in Pakistan, Lebanon, Libya, and Nigeria. Klausen shows how the cartoon crisis was, therefore, ultimately a political conflict rather than a colossal cultural misunderstanding. 606 $aCaricatures and cartoons$xPolitical aspects$zDenmark 606 $aMuslims$zDenmark$xPolitics and government$y21st century 606 $aProtest movements$zDenmark$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aCaricatures and cartoons$xPolitical aspects$zIslamic countries 606 $aChristianity and other religions$xIslam$vCase studies 606 $aBlasphemy (Islam)$vCase studies 607 $aDenmark$xRelations$zIslamic countries 607 $aIslamic countries$xRelations$zDenmark 615 0$aCaricatures and cartoons$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aMuslims$xPolitics and government 615 0$aProtest movements$xHistory 615 0$aCaricatures and cartoons$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aChristianity and other religions$xIslam 615 0$aBlasphemy (Islam) 676 $a363.4 700 $aKlausen$b Jytte$01809070 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967000203321 996 $aThe cartoons that shook the world$94359667 997 $aUNINA
