Social Justice Through Citizenship? - The Politics of Muslim Integration in Germany and Great Britain

Zusatztext 'There is no doubt that the integration of Muslims in these two countries [Germany and Great Britain]! as well as further afield! will continue to concern academics! politicians and members of the public for years to come. Lewicki's recognition of the historical context! her detailing of recent institutionalised consultations and her informed policy suggestions should secure this book a place at the centre of these deliberations.' Times Higher Education Informationen zum Autor Aleksandra Lewicki is Research Associate at the University of Bristol, UK. Her research interests include post-migration political subjectivity, race, religion, and theories of social justice and citizenship. Klappentext Lewicki examines how current salient discourses of citizenship conceptualize democratic relations and frame the 'Muslim question' in Germany and Great Britain. Citizenship is understood not as a static or monolithic regime, but as being reproduced through competing discourses that can facilitate or inhibit the reduction of structural inequalities.
