Summary:Prejudice against Muslims has a long and complex history, shaped over many centuries. In recent decades, discrimination, violence, and human rights abuses against Muslims have taken a significant turn, with rising reports and discussions of Islamophobia across the globe. However, as the authors of 'A Global Racial Enemy' argue, much of the conversation has missed the key features of this increasingly insidious phenomenon. This book puts race at the center of the analysis, exposing the global racialization of Muslims. With special attention paid to the United States, China, India, and the United Kingdom, the authors examine both the unique national contexts and - crucially - the shared characteristics of anti-Muslim racism.
