Countering strident claims on both the right and left, Legal Integration of Islam offers an empirically informed analysis of how four liberal democracies-France, Germany, Canada, and the United States-have responded to the challenge of integrating Islam and Muslim populations. Demonstrating the centrality of the legal system to this process, Christian Joppke and John Torpey reject the widely held notion that Europe is incapable of accommodating Islam and argue that institutional barriers to Muslim integration are no greater on one side of the Atlantic than the other. While Muslims have achieved a substantial degree of equality working through the courts, political dynamics increasingly push back against these gains, particularly in Europe. From a classical liberal viewpoint, religion can either be driven out of public space, as in France, or included without sectarian preference, as in Germany. But both policies come at a price-religious liberty in France and full equality in Germany. Often seen as the flagship of multiculturalism, Canada has found itself responding to nativist and liberal pressures as Muslims become more assertive. And although there have been outbursts of anti-Islamic sentiment in the United States, the legal and political recognition of Islam is well established and largely uncontested. Legal Integration of Islam brings to light the successes and the shortcomings of integrating Islam through law without denying the challenges that this religion presents for liberal societies. 000688956 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000688956 650_0 $$aLegal polycentricity$$zEurope. 000688956 650_0 $$aLegal polycentricity$$zNorth America. 000688956 650_0 $$aIslamic law$$zEurope. 000688956 650_0 $$aIslamic law$$zNorth America. 000688956 7001_ $$aTorpey, John,$$d1959- 000688956 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aJoppke, Christian.$$tLegal integration of Islam.$$dCambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press, 2013$$z9780674072848$$w(DLC) 2012038238$$w(OCoLC)810773327 000688956 85280 $$bebk$$hHarvard University Press 000688956 85640 $$3Harvard University Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.4159/harvard.9780674074910$$zOnline Access 000688956 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:688956$$pGLOBAL_SET 000688956 980__ $$aEBOOK 000688956 980__ $$aBIB 000688956 982__ $$aEbook 000688956 983__ $$aOnline
