{"product_id":"9780802095435","title":"Diaspora by Design: Muslim Immigrants in Canada and Beyond","description":"\u003cp\u003eFew groups face as many misconceptions within their new countries as do Muslim immigrants. This book challenges the common misperceptions of Muslim immigrants as a homogeneous, religiously driven group and identifies the tensions they experience within their host countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA comparative, multi-ethnic study, based on over two thousand interviews, \u003ci\u003eDiaspora by Design\u003c\/i\u003e examines Muslim populations that have settled in Canada, Britain, Iran, and Palestine. Utilizing hard socio-economic data as well as qualitative analysis, the authors show the remarkable diversity and divisions between Muslim immigrant populations along urban-rural, cultural, class, and gender lines. They argue that integration is a two-way exchange that requires a readiness on the part of the host society to remove barriers that prevent the full social and economic participation of immigrant populations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExtensively researched and thoughtfully provocative, \u003ci\u003eDiaspora by Design\u003c\/i\u003e is a much-needed work that provides an accurate and dynamic depiction of the lives of Muslim immigrants away from their homelands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press, Scholarly Publishing Division","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47011424338160,"sku":"9780802095435","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780802095435_p0.jpg?v=1763730274","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780802095435","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
