Antisemitism And Islamophobia / by Idzikowski, Lisa,editor.(CARDINAL)612961;
Includes bibliographical references and index"When the Palestinian militant organization Hamas launched brutal attacks on Israel on October 7, 2023, it sent shock waves across the world. In the aftermath, Israel launched a counterattack on the Gaza Strip, home of Hamas as well as millions of Palestinians. As a result of these attacks, tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians have been injured or killed. Both events have resulted in strong emotional responses and impassioned calls for action from politicians, aid organizations, and civilians on a global scale, but the same strong emotions have also become visible through a rise in antisemitism, which is prejudice and hostility toward Jewish people, and Islamophobia, which is prejudice and hostility toward Muslims. This volume examines recent patterns of antisemitism and Islamophobia in the U.S. and abroad, how they relate to the history of religion-based prejudice, and possible solutions to curb prejudice and hate" --

Why did Switzerland, a country of four minarets, vote to ban those structures? How did a proposed Muslim cultural center in lower Manhattan ignite a fevered political debate across the United States? In The New Religious Intolerance, Martha C. Nussbaum surveys such developments and identifies the fear behind these reactions. Drawing inspiration from philosophy, history, and literature, she suggests a route past this limiting response and toward a more equitable, imaginative, and free society." -- Provided by publisher.

Islam and the future of tolerance : a dialogue / by Harris, Sam,1967-(CARDINAL)468415; Nawaz, Maajid.(CARDINAL)427004;
"In this short book, Sam Harris and Maajid Nawaz invite you to join an urgently needed conversation: Is Islam a religion of peace or war? Is it amenable to reform? Why do so many Muslims seem drawn to extremism? What do words like Islamism, jihadism, and fundamentalism mean in today's world? Remarkable for the breadth and depth of its analysis, this dialogue between a famous atheist and a former radical is all the more startling for its decorum. Harris and Nawaz have produced something genuinely new: they engage one of the most polarizing issues of our time -- fearlessly and fully -- and actually make progress. Islam and the Future of Tolerance has been published with the explicit goal of inspiring a wider public discussion by way of example. In a world riven by misunderstanding and violence, Harris and Nawaz demonstrate how two people with very different views can find common ground"--
