Interrogating Muslims: The Liberal-Secular Matrix of Integration Amir-Moazami Schirin
This book interrogates the patterns and discursive structures that have generated the seeming urgency of Muslims' integration. This book analyzes three kinds of integration practices as symptomatic sites for the multifaceted dimensions of power in this paradigm: the scientific measurement of Muslims' degrees of integration which are correlated with their degrees of religiosity; the politics of recognition promoted by state-organized dialogue with Muslims; and the threat Focusing on Germany, it problematizes the grounds on which politics of integration are justified and reasoned upon, and thereby investigates divergent operations of power vis--vis Muslims and Islam in a formally liberal-secular society.The integration paradigm in Germany has been predicated on an imperial knowledge regime, in which Islam figures as the external friend or enemy of an imagined Christian secular.
