| Summary: | "Systemic Islamophobia in Canada presents critical perspectives on systemic Islamophobia in Canadian politics, law, and society, and maps areas for future research and inquiry. Authors consist of both scholars and professionals who encounter in the ordinary course of their work the--sometimes banal, sometimes surprising--operation of systemic Islamophobia. Centering the lived realities of Muslims chiefly in Canada, but internationally as well, the contributors identify the limits of democratic accountability in the operation of our shared institutions of government. Intended as a guide, the volume identifies important points of consideration that have systemic implications for whether, how, and under what conditions Islamophobia is enabled and perpetuated, and in some cases even rendered respectable policy or bureaucratic practice in Canada. The essays are designed as gestures to future researchers on Islam and Muslims in Canada who may take the introduction as inspiration for their own research. Ultimately, Systemic Islamophobia in Canada identifies a range of systemically Islamophobic sites in Canada to guide tomorrow's researchers and policy makers in fulfilling the promise of an inclusive democratic Canada."-- |
