Abstract
In Republic of Islamophobia: The Rise of Respectable Racism in France, Jim Wolfreys describes the emergence of a 'respectable racism' against Muslims in France since the 1980s, fuelled by the ‘War on Terror’ and rooted in the nation’s colonial history. Praising the book’s candid and incisive writing, Elsa Stéphan welcomes this as a commendably comprehensive and accessible account on Islamophobia in contemporary France.
