| Summary: | "A multidisciplinary study of Western-Muslim interactions in historical and contemporary times, this volume explores ways of enhancing productive engagement in domestic and transnational contexts. Leading scholars discuss Western-Muslim intersections in the areas of civil society, educational curriculum, government policy, legal reform, media production, political participation, public discourse, and public opinion. This book appears at a time when Western forces are withdrawing from Afghanistan and policymakers are exploring the viability of long-term approaches that go beyond securitization and militarization. Engaging the Other will appeal to readers specifically interested in policy issues relating to conflict, culture, diaspora, education, immigration, inter-faith dialogue, intercultural and international relations, Islam and the West, law, media, multiculturalism, national security, political participation, public discourse, public policy, and religion"-- |
