Islam and Islamism in Europe. Representations of Identity and Projects of Action

Summary/Abstract: One of the most challenging issues of Europe today is to cope with the large cultural, ethnic and religious diversity and interactions that occur within a transnational society. The present article is covering the impact of Muslim population and Islamism on the European cultures. The Islamic communities in Europe form a much more diverse and even contradictory landscape than common perception would have it. More often than not, the Muslim populations now settled in European countries have brought here not only their own cultural and solidarity practices but also the various oppositions, rivalries and conflicts which exist in the complex geopolitical puzzles of Maghreb, Masreq or the Indian sub-continent.
