Abstract:
"Focusing especially on Muslim Moroccan migrants, this book explores how Muslim migrants in Europe contribute to a changing European landscape. Based on the author's fieldwork and readings of media, government reports, and historical and contemporary records, it elucidates how Muslim migrants in Europe suffer from marginalization and Islamophobia while, at the same time, contributing economically, politically, and culturally to their host countries, as well their countries of origin"--
