The Mobile Ummah: Belonging and Travel among Muslim Converts in Spain
Converts to Islam in southern Spain struggle to understand their place in the ummah (the global Muslim community).

Al-Andalus in Andalusia: Negotiating Moorish History and Regional Identity in Southern Spain
Introduction: Formatting a Until 2006, the culminating moment of the annual Festival of Moors and in parts of Valencia, Spain was the sight of Muslim and Jewish figures burning in effigy. In recent history, a giant, turban-clad puppet known as Mahoma (Mohammed) was exploded each year at the festival, his gunpowder-filled head set ablaze with a cigar. This year, however, due to fears of retaliation from Muslim extremists, brought about in part by …
