What has our changed world meant for them? We now have a generation – Muslim and non-Muslim – who have grown up only knowing a world at war on terror. These young people have been socialised in a climate of widespread Islamophobia, surveillance and suspicion. An unparalleled security apparatus around terrorism has grown alongside fears over young people’s radicalisation and the introduction into schools and minority communities of various government-led initiatives to counter violent extremism.   In Coming of Age in the War on Terror Randa Abdel-Fattah, a leading scholar and popular writer, interrogates the impact of all this on young people’s trust towards adults and the societies they live in and their political consciousness. Drawing on local interviews but global in scope, this book is the first to examine the lives of a generation for whom the rise of the far-right, the discourse of Trump and Brexit and the growing polarisation of politics seems normal in the long aftermath of 9\/11. It’s about time we hear what they have to say.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50399659393297,"sku":"CIN1742236863G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51258421051665,"sku":"NIN9781742236865","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52428803506449,"sku":"NLS9781742236865","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52496964550929,"sku":"NGR9781742236865","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1742236863.jpg?v=1763225841"},{"product_id":"11-words-for-love-book-randa-abdel-fattah-9780734421203","title":"11 Words for Love","description":"SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2023 PRIME MINISTER'S LITERARY AWARD FOR CHILDREN'S LITERATURE A CBCA NOTABLE PICTURE BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023 SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2023 MULTICULTURAL NSW AWARD  There are eleven words for love, and my family knows them all.

Based on ethnographic fieldwork, Islamophobia and Everyday Multiculturalism sheds light on the problematisations of Muslims amongst Anglo and non-Anglo Australians, investigating the impact of whiteness on minorities’ various reactions to Muslims. Advancing a micro-interactional, ethnographically oriented perspective, the author demonstrates the ways in which Australia’s histories and logics of racial exclusion, thinking and expression produce processes in which whiteness socializes, habituates and ‘teaches’ ‘racialising’ behaviour, and shows how national and global events, moral panics, and political discourse infiltrate everyday encounters between Muslims and non-Muslims, producing distinct structures of feeling and discursive, affective and social practices of Islamophobia. As such, it will be of interest to social scientists with interests in race and ethnicity, migration and diaspora and Islamophobia.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52131238871313,"sku":"NLS9781138894532","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781138894532.jpg?v=1757508506"},{"product_id":"islamophobia-and-everyday-multiculturalism-in-australia-book-randa-abdel-fattah-9780367332839","title":"Islamophobia and Everyday Multiculturalism in Australia","description":"This book explores Islamophobia in Australia, shifting attention from its victims to its perpetrators by examining the nature of people's responses to the Muslim 'Other' in everyday life.
