Bush's War on Terror to the Age of Obama. Using "Operation Desert Storm" as a watershed moment, Stephen Sheehi examines the increased mainstreaming of Muslim-baiting rhetoric and explicitly racist legislation, police surveillance, witch-trials and discriminatory policies towards Muslims in North America and abroad. 520 $a "Sheehi's analysis of Islamophobia as an ideological formation brings a much needed dose of fresh air and analytical clarity... A worthy update of Said's seminal discussion of Orientalism and one that leaves few players in the contemporary foreign policy establishment, in particular so-called liberals, unscathed." Mark Levine, Author of why they Don't Hate us and Heavy Metal Islam. 520 $a "[A] brilliantly synthetic work; a gift to all who struggle to understand the anti-Muslim sentiment so pervasive in contemporary America. In a richly detailed yet accessible manner, Sheehi tackles post-Cold War American Islamophobia in all of its complexity, weaving together its liberal and neoconservative strands, and illustrating that we must interrogate it not as a problem of "prejudice" or "misunderstanding," nor as a debate about Islam itself, but as an ideological paradigm used to structure and justify U.S. policies, both domestic and international."Natsu Taylor Saito, Author of Meeting The Enemy: American Exceptionalism and International Law --Book Jacket. 650 0 $a Muslims $z United States $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Arab Americans $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Muslims $z Europe $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Arabs $z Europe $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Islamophobia $z United States. 650 0 $a Islamophobia $z Europe. 650 0 $a Rhetoric $x Political aspects $z Western countries. 650 0 $a Ideology $x Political aspects $z Western countries. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 651 0 $a Europe $x Race relations. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220802021858.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20120410010535.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E06BF878376E11E1999191C06AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
