Terror and the dynamism of Islamophobia in 21st century Britain

This lecture draws on lived experiences for delineating racialised mechanisms of terror involved in the governance of Muslim populations in the ‘war on terror’ context. Madeline-Sophie Abbaslinks her analyses to wider concerns of nation construction and belonging; racial profiling and policing; the state of exception and pre-emptive counter-terrorism measures; community-based counter-terrorism measures; and restrictions to political engagement, freedom of speech and hate speech.
