AUTHOR APPROVED Young British Muslims Identity, Culture, Politics and the Media Nahid Afrose Kabir In Britain's highly politicised social climate in the aftermath of the 7/7 London bombings, Young British Muslims: Identity, Culture, Politics and the Media provides an in-depth understanding of British Muslim identity through the following social constructs: migration history, family settlement, socio-economic status, religion and culture, and the wider societal environment. Nahid Afrose Kabir, has carried out extensive research on young Muslims' identity in Australia and the UK. For this book she conducted ethnographic fieldwork in the form of in-depth, semi-structured interviews of over 200 young Muslims in five British cities: London, Leicester, Bradford, Leeds and Cardiff.

By emphasising the importance of biculturalism, the author conveys a realistic and hopeful vision for their successful integration into British society.

She is the author of /Muslims in Australia: Immigration, Race Relations and Cultural History/ (2005).
