Abstract
The ‘Muslim Question’ is currently projected as a major international political, social and security issue across government, media and civil society discourses. Central to this question is the schooling of Muslim students. In response, this book draws upon the work of leading international scholars in education, who make a number of interconnecting theoretical, conceptual and empirical contributions to the field. In making new and exciting interventions involving theory, methodology, policy and practice, the contributors provide up-to-date accounts of research on schooling about Muslim students across different educational sites. We have a particular interest in mapping emerging Muslim student subjectivities, identities and disparate social biographies of a late modern generation of whom we know little.
