The book shows how six British-born[1]Muslim teenagers have created their own "British-Islamic identity", with stories charting their life experiences.[2][3] The interviewees are all third-generation Bangladeshis living in Tower Hamlets, the London borough that is home to the largest concentration of Bangladeshis outside Bangladesh.[4]
The book explores how that identity helps Bangladeshis born in the East End manage the complexities of being British, Bangladeshi and Muslim, with a sense of belonging, despite Islamic terrorism dominating world news.[2]
Critical responseedit
Mafruha Mohua of Times Higher Education said of British-Islamic Identity, "Hoque's examination of the strategies this generation employs in constructing British-Islamic identity is intriguing."[4] Nike Brooke of East London Advertiser said "...Hoque delves into how it feels to be seen as 'violent, terrorist, un-British' and be in a marginalised minority with 'no sense of belonging'".[2]
IOE Press said, "The book tackles the layers of sociological postmodern identity – language, race, religion, nation and gender – and frames them within the context of young people's self-narratives. It offers important new insight and understanding of their own stories of identity and allows us to hear these ignored and alienated voices."[1]
