- Title
British Muslims in the Post-9/11 Era: The Challenge of Visibility and Media Misrepresentation.
- Authors
ZOUI, Mahfoud ALI; MANAA, Mohamed
- Abstract
Drawing on the analysis of selected articles from British print media covering news on the growing visibility of Muslims in the country, this paper argues that the press has significantly contributed to the post-9/11 wave of anti-Muslim hatred in Britain. Through propagating the myth of an "imminent Muslim takeover of Britain and Europe", sections of the press nurtured the excessive fears among the public of extraordinarily rapid growth of 'an alien group with cultural values incompatible with the western way'.
