Global Islamophobia and the Rise of Populism
Global Islamophobia and right-wing populism have grown and intensified at an alarming rate. Each chapter in this volume demonstrates how the ubiquity of these negative and fallacious stereotypes across continents has harmed Muslims economically, politically, and socially. In the most egregious cases, Islamophobia has cost Muslims their lives and liberty. In India, for example, Muslims are bearing the brunt of the alarming rise of Hindutva—a right…
Islam in Transition
9/11 and continued acts of global terrorism have challenged the understanding of academic experts, policymakers, and students, Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Critical questions have been raised about Islam and Muslim politics in the modern world: Are Islam and modernity compatible? Is Islam inneed of and capable of reform? What do Islam and what do Muslims have to say about globalization, democracy, human rights, women, jihad, violence, terrorism…
Islamophobia and Radicalization
Shariah
Abstract Sharia is by now a term that most Americans and Europeans recognize, though few really understand what it means. Often portrayed as a medieval system used by religious zealots to oppress women and deny human rights, conservative politicians, media commentators, and hardline televangelists stoke fear by promoting the idea that Muslims want to impose a repressive Sharia rule in America and Europe. Despite the breadth of this propaganda, a …

Islam and the Challenge of Democracy
Who Kills Turnus? “Pallas” and What Aeneas Sees, Says and Does in Aeneid 12.939–52
In this paper I read the closing scene of the Aeneid through Aeneas' final speech, asking: What does it mean for Aeneas to say “Pallas te hoc vulnere, Pallas / immolat” at Aeneid 12.948–9? Drawing on intertexts from Iliad 22 and 24, I trace a sequence of thoughts suggested by the movement of Aeneas' eyes over Turnus' body. Quasi-cinematic features of 12.939–52 place the visible splendor of Pallas' balteus in tension with its horrifying past. Kill…
Islam and Political Violence
The global threat of Al Qaeda post 9/11 and ISIL, increased Sunni-Shia conflicts, and violence in the Middle East and Pakistan dominate headlines and challenge governments in the region and globally. Both Muslim extremists and some Western experts and observers speak of a clash of civilizations or a culture war in Muslim-West relations. Both the discourse and violence yet again raise questions about the relationship of Islam to violence and terro…
