It examines the varying degrees to which IRE is adopted in state schools, public Islamic schools, and non-confessional classes and considers the impacts of different teaching models on Muslim populations. It also offers multi-disciplinary perspectives to address challenges posed by religious teachings on issues such as feminism, human rights, and citizenship. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 312 pages\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 April 2021\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAgainst the backdrop of labor migration and the ongoing refugee crisis, the ways in which Islam is taught and engaged with in educational settings has become a major topic of contention in Europe. Recognizing the need for academic engagement around the challenges and benefits of effective Islamic Religious Education (IRE), this volume offers a comprehensive comparative study of curricula, teaching materials, and teacher education in fourteen European countries, and in doing so, explores the local, national, and international complexities of contemporary IRE.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConsidering the ways in which Islam is taught and represented in state schools, public Islamic schools, and non-confessional classes, Part One of this volume includes chapters that survey the varying degrees to which fourteen European States have adopted IRE into curricula, and considers the impacts of varied teaching models on Muslim populations. Moving beyond individual countries' approaches to IRE, chapters in Part Two offer multi-disciplinary perspectives – from the hermeneutical-critical to the postcolonial – to address challenges posed by religious teachings on issues such as feminism, human rights, and citizenship, and the ways these are approached in European settings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGiven its multi-faceted approach, this book will be an indispensable resource for postgraduate students, scholars, stakeholders, and policymakers working at the intersections of religion, education, and policy on religious education.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 608g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 158 x 235 x 26 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367353759\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104602026234,"sku":"9780367353759","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/41ef762a8e8fa7d3d8dbc8960895762b.jpg?v=1623213102","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/islamic-religious-education-in-europe-a-comparative-study","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
