The academic discourse has also touched on this issue, an example being the works of Edward Said, where he alludes to connections between anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. Following the 2003 publication of the Islamophobia report produced by the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA), which discusses the similarities between Islamophobia and anti-Semitism, scholars in various fields began a debate that compares and contrasts anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.

  • The Muslims Fit to Print
    SREXXX10.1177/2332649220903747Sociology of Race and EthnicityYazdiha 903747research-article2020 Racialization and Muslim Experience Sociology of Race and Ethnicity 2020, Vol. 6(4) 501 –516 All the Muslims Fit to Print: © American Sociological Association 2020 DOI:https://doi.org/10.1177/2332649220903747 10.1177/2332649220903747 Racial Frames as Mechanisms sre.sagepub.com of Muslim Ethnoracial Formation in the New York Times from 1992 to 2010 Hajar Yazdiha1 Abstract A generative turn in scholarship examines the institutional and political dimensions of Islamophobia, conceptualizing Muslim representations as a mechanism of ethnoracial formation in which the media is one such site of racialization. Moments of great political and cultural transformation can motivate and activate these racial projects, generating racialized representations that attach racial meaning to bodies. Much of the research on Muslim representations in news media centers on this very question: did the attacks of 9/11 usher in a new racial project? Previous studies offer competing hypotheses. Bridging social movement and communication theories with a theory of ethnoracial formation, the author develops an approach for evaluating racial framing processes through a comparison of diagnostic, prognostic, and motivational frames. The author applies this approach using computational text analysis techniques to examine latent shifts in the racial framing of Muslims in the New York Times in the decade before and after 9/11. The author finds evidence of increasingly racialized, but more complex, representations of Muslims in the decade after 9/11 in which diagnostic frames evolve from locating social problems in states and institutions to locating social problems in Muslim bodies. Prognostic frames shift from institutional reforms to those targeting group pathology.

  • Preliminary Program “Democracy and Islam”
    ÖSTERREICHISCHE FORSCHUNGSGEMEINSCHAFT AUSTRIAN RESEARCH ASSOCIATION ARBEITSGRUPPE ZUKUNFT DER DEMOKRATIE WORKING GROUP ON DEMOCRACY PRELIMINARY PROGRAM 5th Research Conference “DEMOCRACY AND ISLAM” Vienna, November 05-06, 2015 Conference Venue: Austrian Foundation for Development Research Sensengasse 3 | 1090 Vienna Conference room of the institute’s library Conference Topic This conference aims at discussing the relationship between ‘Islam’ and ‘democracy’. Islam has become a political issue after the Islamic Revolution in Iran and even more so after Huntington’s theory of the Clash of Civilizations. At the latest since 9/11 and following attacks by so called homegrown terrorists in Europe and the US, Islam has also become an issue in domestic politics in many Western countries. State authorities and political representatives in the realm of security, education, youth, and culture have had to react to the various Islam-discourses by engaging in the debate itself and/or by implementing new policies and laws. Moreover, Muslim actors have appeared on the political stage, publically stating their interests and voicing their concerns and grievances. These developments have had important consequences for democratic processes. How are democratic narratives, frames, and/or principles challenged by the rise of exclusionary politics and ethnocratic arguments? How do state authorities incorporate Muslim civic organizations in the political system? What are the implications of politics of resistance and opposition to, or support for the practices of the democratic state on the part of Muslim actors? It is these questions that form the core agenda of this conference. Organizing Institution The Working Group on the Future of Austrian Democracy of the Austrian Research Association is a national interdisciplinary and inter-institutional panel of scholars organized under the auspices of the Austrian Research Association and led by Reinhard Heinisch, Professor of Political Science at University of Salzburg.
