NARRATING ISLAM
Gerdien Jonker and Shiraz Thobani (Eds): Narrating Islam. Interpretations of the Muslim World in European Texts.
Basingstoke: I.B. Tauris, 2009. 304 pages
ISBN 9781845119782
Mapping the diverse images of Islam and Muslims in educational texts as reproduced in national contexts across Europe and neighbouring regions, Narrating Islam explores both historical perceptions and contemporary representations of Islam and Muslims as projected through instructional media. Based on interdisciplinary research, it seeks to excavate the layered images of Muslims and Islam which have been historically embedded in semantic reservoirs and which feed into the modern scripting of the ‘other’ in a global context. Narrating Islam offers a framework to critically discuss European identity through interrogating how pedagogical discourses negotiate the Muslim presence in and around Europe.
The Nation, Europe and the World
Hanna Schissler and Yasemin Nuhoglu Soysal (Ed.): The Nation, Europe and the World. Textbooks and Curricula in Transition.
New York, Oxford: Berghahn Books, 2005. 258 pages
ISBN 1-57181-549-X HB
ISBN 1-57181-550-3 PB
Textbooks in history, geography and the social sciences provide important insights into the ways in which nation-states project themselves. Based on case studies of France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Greece, Turkey Bulgaria, Russia, and the United States, this volume shows the role that concepts of space and time play in the narration of "our country" and the wider world in which it is located. It explores ways in which in western European countries the nation is reinterpreted through European lenses to replace national approaches in the writing of history. On the other hand, in an effort to overcome Eurocentric views,"world history" has gained prominence in the United States. Yet again, East European countries, coming recently out of a transnational political union, have their own issues with the concept of nation to contend with. These recent developments in the field of textbooks and curricula open up new and fascinating perspectives on the changing patterns of the re-positioning process of nation-states in West as well as Eastern Europe and the United States in an age of growing importance of transnational organizations and globalization.
