Abstract

Depuis le milieu des années 2000, un mot s’est immiscé dans le débat : islamisation. Les musulmans, dont la population s’accroîtrait dangereusement, chercheraient à submerger numériquement et culturellement l’Europe. L’imaginaire du complot déborde ainsi peu à peu le cadre de l’islamophobie ordinaire. Si cette perception paranoïaque était restée l’apanage d’une poignée d’extrémistes, elle ne ferait pas question, mais elle envahit aujourd’hui l'espace public, imprègne les discours de politiciens écoutés et les analyses d'auteurs réputés sérieux. Cet essai salutaire s’attelle à déconstruire ce qui n’est autre qu’un mythe et interroge l’obsession collective qu’il recèle. Il montre ainsi que la « bombe démographique musulmane » qui serait prête à éclater sur le triple front de la natalité, de l’immigration et de la conversion relève du fantasme. Quant au regain de ferveur spirituelle et au renouveau identitaire des musulmans, ils n’ont pas la signification conquérante ni même politique que suggère l’épouvantail de l’« islamisme ». Cette réfutation en règle permet enfin de comprendre pourquoi l’Europe et la France en particulier ont tant besoin de l’« ennemi musulman ».

Abstract

The Muslim Brotherhood in the Middle East has always attracted widely divergent attention. Scholars have regarded it both as the source of terrorism, and, more recently as the potential harbinger of democratization. The Muslim Brotherhood in Europe has attracted far less attention. But heavily influenced by its ambiguous reputation in the Middle East it has led to widespread speculation about its character. Its critics regard the European organizations as part of a suspicious, secretive, centrally led world-wide organization that enhances the alienation of Muslims in Europe. Its sympathizers, on the other hand, regard the Brotherhood as a moderate movement that has been Europeanized and promotes integration. This volume brings together experts on the European Muslim Brotherhood who address some of the main issues on which the debate has concentrated. After an introduction dealing with the European debate in the press, the first section shows that Brotherhood consists primarily of a network of informal ties, which have developed a host of localized practices and contradictory trends. The second part deals with the Brotherhood organizations in different European countries and traces their highly specific trajectories and relations with the local non-Muslim press and authorities. The third section concentrates on the ideological developments of the movement in the Middle East and Europe.Bron : http://www.amazon.com

Abstract

The Emancipation of Europe's Muslims traces how governments across Western Europe have responded to the growing presence of Muslim immigrants in their countries over the past fifty years. Drawing on hundreds of in-depth interviews with government officials and religious leaders in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Morocco, and Turkey, Jonathan Laurence challenges the widespread notion that Europe's Muslim minorities represent a threat to liberal democracy. He documents how European governments in the 1970's and 1980's excluded Islam from domestic institutions, instead inviting foreign powers like Saudi Arabia, Algeria, and Turkey to oversee the practice of Islam among immigrants in European host societies. But since the 1990's, amid rising integration problems and fears about terrorism, governments have aggressively stepped up efforts to reach out to their Muslim communities and incorporate them into the institutional, political, and cultural fabrics of European democracy. The Emancipation of Europe's Muslims places these efforts--particularly the government-led creation of Islamic councils--within a broader theoretical context and gleans insights from government interactions with groups such as trade unions and Jewish communities at previous critical junctures in European state-building. By examining how state-mosque relations in Europe are linked to the ongoing struggle for religious and political authority in the Muslim-majority world, Laurence sheds light on the geopolitical implications of a religious minority's transition from outsiders to citizens. This book offers a much-needed reassessment that foresees the continuing integration of Muslims into European civil society and politics in the coming decades.
