Description: In recent years, Islam has increasingly become the focus of the European public. Political decisions and social disputes related to Islam are increasing, and reveal a certain uneasiness and increasing rejection in large parts of the European population. This phenomenon, which is referred to in the term ‘Islamophobia, has repeatedly been the subject of scientific articles and critical studies. This book addresses this neglected perspective. The author examines the perception of Western Islamophobia in the Arab world, using discussion programmes aired by the most respected Arab satellite broadcaster, Al Jazeera channel. The discourse on Islamophobia, its causes, manifestations and possible solutions is also analyzed. This work is an intellectual contribution to open up new perspectives to a better understanding of this seemingly rising phenomenon. 78.
