“…38 The consequence of such construction is that terrorism and the veil end up being situated on the same level of analysis as violence against European values and principles. 39 Such construction could only be more resilient after the impact of the 9/11 attacks and the consequent debates that ensued in terms of 'clash of civilizations'. Real or assumed solidarity with the ummah, understood here as a component of identity, not as a catalyst which translates into political mobilisation, is equated with disloyalty, an equation given full legitimacy after the 9/11 attacks.…”

The September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States have liberated an encompassing rhetoric globally which designates all that is 'Muslim' or perceived to be such as a threat. The securitizing perspective, intertwined with debates over Muslims' integration and increasingly visible religiosity has led to growing suspicions regarding Muslims' loyalties in Europe. This analysis seeks to characterize this securitizing perspective and considers on the one hand, the inherent equalisation of increasing Muslim identity awareness with disloyalty and on the other hand, the depiction of Muslims in Europe as a homogenous block which facilitates constructing them as the 'Other'. As an illustration, this paper focuses more particularly on France and Great Britain.

“…The local authorities issuing the ban on the burkini from the beach, before its cancellation by the Conseil d'Etat, thus articulated the argument of threat to public order in their decision (Berg and Lundah 2016). Following this line of reasoning, signs of religious visibility such as the veil or the burkini become thus equated, cognitively, along with the same continuum as terrorism (Blanc, Loisel, andSherrer 2005: Berg andLundahl 2016). In parallel, 55 percent of Europeans wish to suspend the entry of Muslim immigrants into Europe (Goodwin, Raines, and Cutts 2017).…”

Abstract:Drawing on a framework that goes beyond the usual securitization lens and that includes other neglected sociological dynamics, namely consumerism and individualization, this article explores an overlooked form of dress in the research on Islamic dress in the West which is Islamic street wear. This analysis interrogates what Islamic street wear reveals, in terms of identity, about the experience of young Muslims living as a minority in secular spaces. Various messages collected from message T-shirts are deconstructed to precisely highlight the effect of these different dynamics on the articulation of identities by young Muslims. A theoretical framework grounded in the notion of hybridity guides a systematic content analysis of the messages. The analysis of these messages reveals the strong individualization of faith deriving from consumerist patterns, the rather limited expression of the controversial "ummatic" loyalty to Muslims worldwide and the assertion of pride in Muslim identity.
