The rise of a Muslim middle class in Britain
This paper uses original fieldwork data to examine the role of class and ethnicity in shaping performed identities for Muslim musicians. It claims that the emergence of a Muslim public sphere in Britain – which includes music as one important cultural component – is implicated by dominant notions of Muslimness that are developed in a field of power relations structured by class and ethnicity. The central claim of this paper is that an assertion o…
Sufis, Salafis and Islamists
One of the more dispiriting ironies for public debates concerning the ‘problem’ of political Islam in Britain has been the extent to which labels are lazily applied, or more cynically hijacked, wit
Re-Placing the Term “British Muslim
The term “British Muslim” has over the last three decades become a familiar part of public discourse, to the extent that it is becoming naturalised as a neutral social descriptor rather than as an active or contested concept. This article examines the genealogy of the term in relation to three overlapping discourses: (i) state-led discourses of racialised citizenship (ii) tacit academic support for forms of civic nationalism and (iii) emergent Mu…
Reina Lewis, Muslim fashion. Contemporary style cultures
It is only a decade since academic literature on Muslims was dominated by debates concerning cultural identity within a framework of problematisation or contestation. National, ethnic and religious
Look into the Book of Life
Spirituality has been theorised as a characteristic of late-modern society, a consequence of individualisation and of a relativized marketplace of religion. Drawing on findings from ethnographic fieldwork conducted with Muslim musicians in the UK, the author claims that spirituality can indeed be considered a postmodern discourse of belief - with trans-religious applicability - but that at the same time it can be articulated from within a clear u…

Ohr und Auge -- Klang und Form
Herder is probably most familiar to musicologists as one of the formative figures in the musical nationalism of nineteenth-century Europe. His work on the national characteristics of the Volkslied is typically credited with initiating the discourse on national musical style and its roots in ‘folk’ tradition. In Ohr und Auge — Klang und Form (Ear and Eye—Sound and Form) Arne Stollberg outlines a less familiar perspective, one that detects Herder's…
Geographic Variation of Procedure Utilization
In this study, an abbreviated introduction to hierarchical statistical models for quantifying and explaining variations in the utilization of medical care is presented. The illustrative example was derived from an analysis of interstate variation in coronary angiography utilization for Medicare patients with a recent acute myocardial infarction. The hierarchical model distinguished within-from between-states variation: the former was modeled via …
The Findings of the Rand Health Insurance Experiment??? A Response to Welch et al
Newhouse, Joseph P.; Manning, Willard G.; Duan, Naihua; Morris, Carl N.; Keeler, Emmett B.; Leibowitz, Arleen; Marquis, M Susan; Rogers, William H.; Davies, Allyson R.; Lohr, Kathleen N.; Ware, John E. Jr.; Brook, Robert H. Author Information
Choosing Between the Sample-Selection Model and the Multi-Part Model
Hay and Olsen (1984) incorrectly argue that a multi-part model, the two-part model used in Duan et al. (1982,1983), is nested within the sample-selection model. Their proof relies on an unmentioned restrictive assumption that cannot be satisfied. We provide a counterexample to show that the propensity to use medical care and the level of expense can be positively associated in the two-part model, contrary to their assertion. The conditional speci…
A Comparison of Alternative Models for the Demand for Medical Care
We have tested alternative models of the demand for medical care using experimental data. The estimated response of demand to insurance plan is sensitive to the model used. We therefore use a split-sample analysis and find that a model that more closely approximates distributional assumptions and uses a nonparametric retransformation factor performs better in terms of mean squared forecast error. Simpler models are inferior either because they ar…
