Fear of the terrorist threat provoked by radical Islam has generated heated debates on multiculturalism and the integration of Muslim migrant communities in to Britain. Yet little is known about Britain's first Muslims, the Yemenis. Yemenis began settling in British port towns at the beginning of the 20th century, and afterwards became part of the immigrant labour force in Britain's industrial cities. Fred Halliday's ground-breaking research, based in Yemen and Britain, provides a fascinating case study for understanding the dynamics of immigrant cultures and the complexities of 'Muslim' iden Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

Lots of interesting books pass through my hands at the library and this was one of them. A study of Yemeni immigrants to the UK, I was attracted to it because it talked about people in Birmingham. Cardiff and South Shields were other important centres and there's a good longitidinal basis to the study, as we find that these people were very early immigrants to the UK, and how their experiences mirrored those of the larger populations who came later. Interesting and thoughtful. ( )
