In recent decades, discrimination, violence, and human rights abuses against Muslims have taken a significant turn, with rising reports and discussions of Islamophobia across the globe. However, much of the conversation has missed the key features of this increasingly insidious phenomenon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis original book puts race at the center of the analysis, exposing the global racialization of Muslims. With special attention paid to the United States, China, India, and the United Kingdom, the authors examine both the unique national contexts and – crucially – the shared characteristics of anti-Muslim racism. They uncover how a range of counterterrorism policies, from hyper-surveillance to racialized policing, and the ensuing representation of Islam, have taken a decisive role in shaping social life for Muslims and have worked across borders to justify and institutionalize an acceptable, state-sponsored face of racism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUltimately, \u003ci\u003eA Global Racial Enemy\u003c\/i\u003e argues that anti-Muslim animus is a symptom of a global and powerful form of twenty-first-century racism.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction – Muslim Global Racialization: 21st-Century Racism\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 – Muslim Histories: Contextualizing the Global War on Terror\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2 – The Media and the Racialization of Muslims: Constructing a Global Threat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3 – The Global Racialization of Muslims and the Rise in Nationalism and Populism\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4 – Global Counterterrorism Policies: Racializing Muslims via Surveillance, Policing, and Detention\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConclusion: Where Do We Go from Here?
