Reporting Islam: Muslim Women in the New York Times, 1979-2011: Gender and Islam
Editat de Suad Josephen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iul 2024
At a time when women often become the iconic representatives of their nations, their cultures and their religions, this book offers unique insight into how a dramatic period of contemporary history for the Middle East and South Asia was depicted by the leading print newspaper in the world. The coverage captures the Islamic Revolution in Iran, the rise of Islamist movements across the Middle East, South Asia, and Africa, the first Gulf War, the 9/11 events, the second Gulf War, the War on Terror, and the Arab uprisings. The book asks critical questions about the wider implications of the misrepresentation of Muslim women in the media, and the links between print news, US foreign policy and women.

Recenzii
A comprehensive multi-faceted study that should serve as a reminder for reporters covering Islam to pause and reflect on the power of words to marginalize, trivialize, and mislead.
This book is an invaluable resource, highlighting the gendered violence and Islamophobic misrepresentations that Muslim women experience around the globe driven, in part, by the flawed reporting that is prevalent in newspapers of record, such as the New York Times. A must read for anyone interested in understanding how media can shape perceptions of women and Islam.
In careful, dismaying detail, this must-read thoroughly researched essay collection shows how our most trusted media sources promote Islamophobia. Reporting Islam is a sobering reminder of how Islamophobia is not the result of ignorance, but of routinized, persistent misrepresentation by our most revered institutions.
By analyzing anti-Muslim racism within the contexts of colonialism, global capitalism, and race/class/gender politics, Reporting Islam helps readers understand the historical and political conditions through which it emerges. It also updates existing perspectives on how media representations fuel some of the most urgent forms of injustice of our times while providing readers with tools for imagining and building a world without Islamophobia and racism. Its urgent interventions make it a must read for the general public and scholars across many fields--from Arab American and Muslim American Studies to Race and Ethnic Studies, Middle East Studies, Gender and Women's Studies, Media Studies, and beyond.
