Islamophobia in Europe is persistent and
on the rise. In the past years, we developed
a new approach to account for how Muslims
are systematically made into a problem
in Europe. How does Europe’s emergent
‘Muslim Question’ relate to longer histories
of colonialism, Orientalism, and Europe’s
‘Jewish Question’? And what does this
relation reveal about the entanglement of
race & religion in Europe? We traced the role
of population ‘replacement’ ideology (such
as ‘le grand remplacement’, ‘omvolking’,
‘white genocide’ or ‘Umvolkung’) at the very
heart of these questions and analyzed how
the regulation of gender, sexuality, and
reproduction is central to the making of
Europe’s ‘Muslim Question’.
En/Gendering Europe’s ‘Muslim Question’
is a research project funded by the NWO
and embedded within the Amsterdam
Institute for Social Science Research
(UvA). We cordially invite you to the public
presentation of our main findings.
Registration is required.
