Produktbeschreibung
While American leaders wage war on extremists in the Middle East, they are dangerously detached from a potentially greater threat closer to home. In Breeding Bin Ladens, Zachary Shore asserts that the growing ambivalence of Europe's Muslims poses risks to national identities, international security, and the transatlantic alliance. Shore offers a deeply nuanced and hopeful consideration of Islam's future in the West. Cautioning Western leaders against an anti-terrorist tunnel vision that could ultimately backfire, Shore proposes bold, creative, and controversial solutions for attracting the hearts and minds of moderate Muslims living in the West. "Well-written overview of the state of Islam in Europe."--Bloomsbury Review "Shore captures much of the nuance and contradiction of a community being asked to integrate into national polities that exploit them economically, treat their faith as a second-class superstition, and fail to deal with persistent, widespread racism."--American Prospect "The only one of the American authors to have taken the trouble to talk to a lot of European Muslims."--Financial Times "Shore's wise and thoughtful book addresses Europe's 'Muslim problems' . . . This eminently readable volume deserves to be widely known and seriously pondered."--Foreign Affairs "Shore's thoughtful and measured analysis stands out in a genre awash in oversimplification, misinformation, and polemics."--H-Amstdy, H-Net Reviews
