Beydoun.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Islamophobia has spiraled into a global menace, and democratic and authoritarian regimes alike have deployed it as a strategy to persecute their Muslim populations. With this book, Khaled A. Beydoun details how the American War on Terror has facilitated and intensified the network of anti-Muslim campaigns unfolding across the world. \u003ci\u003eThe New Crusades\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book of its kind, offering a critical and intimate examination of global Islamophobia and its manifestations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and regions beyond and in between. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Through trenchant analysis and direct testimony from Muslims on the ground, Beydoun interrogates how Islamophobia acts as a unifying global thread of state and social bigotry, instigating both liberal and right-wing hate-mongering. Whether imposed by way of hijab bans in France, state-sponsored hate speech and violence in India, or the network of concentration camps in China, Islamophobia unravels into distinct systems of demonization and oppression across the post-9\/11 geopolitical landscape. Lucid and poignant, \u003ci\u003eThe New Crusades\u003c\/i\u003e reveals that Islamophobia is not only a worldwide phenomenon--it stands as one of the world's last bastions of acceptable hate.\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA poignant, powerful look at the twenty-first century and the crusades against Muslims created in the wake of the facile global war on terror.

By dissecting the anatomy of Islamophobia in my home country, France--which stands as the vanguard of anti-Muslim bigotry--Beydoun connects siloed national cases to an intricate network of global Islamophobias. In this vein, \u003ci\u003eThe New Crusades\u003c\/i\u003e trailblazes vivid academic ground and makes the book nothing short of a triumph.

It brilliantly describes China's war on Islam. The book delves into the inhumane practices carried out in concentration camps where Uyghurs are subjected to indoctrination, torture, and sexual abuse and it exposes modern slavery. It also examines the hypocrisy of some of the powers that be, standing alongside Ukrainians rightfully, but silent on China's active genocide of Uyghurs.\"--Rushan Abbas, Founder and Executive Director, Campaign for Uyghurs \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"After theorizing Islamophobia in the American context, Beydoun now turns a global lens on Islamophobia, showing us how the US wars on terror licensed and amplified 'new crusades' in countries around the world.
