Definition English:
|
|
A fear of or hostility towards Muslims, which can manifest itself in many ways including acts of anti-Muslim racism. Islamophobia has, since 9/11 and the ‘war on terror’, become a feature of many western societies and manifests itself in a range of ways including legislation against visible aspects of Islam – such as the wearing of the burka and niqab and the building of mosques and minarets.
