Spatialized Islamophobia: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Spatialized Islamophobia" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book demonstrates the spatialized and multi-scalar nature of Islamophobia. It provides ground-breaking insights in recognising the importance of space in the formation of anti-Muslim racism.Through the exploration of complementary data, both from existing quantitative databases and directly from victims of Islamophobia, applied in two important European capitals - Paris and London - this book brings new materials to research on Islamophobia and argues that Islamophobia is also a spatialized process that occurs at various interrelated spatial scales: globe, nation, urban, neighbourhood and body (and mind). In so doing, this book establishes and advances the new concept of Spatialized Islamophobia by exploring global, national, urban, infra-urban, embodied and emotional Islamophobias as well as their complex interrelationships. It also offer a critical discussion of the geographies of Islamophobia by pointing out the lack of geographical approaches to Islamophobia Studies. By using self-reflexivity, the author raises important questions that may have hampered the study of Spatialized Islamophobia, focusing in particular on the favoured methodologies which too often remain qualitative, as well as on the whiteness of the discipline of Geography which can disrupt the legitimacy of a certain knowledge.The book will be an important reference for those in the fields of Human Geography, Sociology, Politics, Racial Studies, Religious Studies and Muslim studies.

Kawtar Najib is a social and urban geographer with research interests in social inequality and religious discrimination using both quantitative and qualitative methods. She was a Marie Curie Fellow at Newcastle University where she was the principal researcher of the SAMA project (Spaces of Anti-Muslim Acts), funded by the European Commission, which highlights the impact of Islamophobic discrimination on space and people. She earned her PhD in Geography and Planning at the University of Franche-Comt (France) on socio-spatial inequality and residential segregation in urban neighbourhoods. Her research explores more broadly issues of social and spatial justice.

Islamophobia takes varying forms and presents itself in diverse ways in different places. Geography matters: space plays a complex role in relation to Islamophobia. However, Islamophobia is primarily studied in social science disciplines other than Geography; the tendency in research about Islamophobia is to overlook or side-step the ways in which space might matter.

In this important book, Kawtar Najib foregrounds the role of space when studying Islamophobia and sets out how we can move from Critical Islamophobia Studies towards a critical geography of Islamophobia and anti-Muslim racism. Kawtar builds upon the original data that she collected from victims of Islamophobia in London and Paris to set out what a Spatialized Islamophobia looks like. This study was funded through the award of a prestigious individual fellowship to Kawtar from the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions of the European Commission and was hosted at Newcastle University in North East England.

This study is innovative not only in the attention it gives to the lived experiences of those who have experienced Islamophobia, but also in how it combines this with the spatial mapping of Islamophobic incidents to explore how they are concentrated or not in specific neighbourhoods. In doing so, this text makes a crucial point about the strength of adopting a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods in promoting a critical understanding of Spatialized Islamophobia.

Kawtar also reflects critically on her position as a racially and ethnically minoritized Muslim woman working on issues of inequality and Islamophobia, while negotiating the colonial, elitist and exclusionary spaces of academia, and in particular French academia. In doing so, she raises important questions about the whiteness of the discipline of Geography and calls for the inclusion of ethnic and religious minorities within the discipline.

Overall, the significant intervention included in the pages of this book establishes the new concept of Spatialized Islamophobia. Specific attention is paid to global, national, urban, infra-urban, embodied and emotional Islamophobias and the complex ways in which these are interconnected and mutually reinforcing. This is a must read for any scholar or student interested in Islamophobia, racism and inequality in the social sciences, as well as scholars and activists interested in challenging whiteness, discrimination and exclusionary practices in the contemporary academy.
