Recensioner i media

"This book makes an important contribution to the field of European social movement studies and addresses some of the key issues around globalization, austerity and how these movements have been constructed with Muslim minorities. ... This historical account is important because it provides the context within the emergence of religious actors within alter-globalization movements." (Imran Awan, Ethnic and Racial Studies, Vol. 39, July, 2016) "Peace's path-breaking book is the first cross-national study of Muslim activism within European social movements. ... The book is flawlessly organized and enjoyably detailed. ... 'European Social Movements and Muslim Activism. Another World but With Whom?' is an excellent and inspiring book, rigorous and enjoyable, which deconstructs and exposes a series of assumptions on both Muslim activism and the alter-globalisation movement in Europe." (Alberta Giorgi, Partecipazione e Conflitto, Vol. 9 (1), March, 2016) "European Social Movements and Muslim Activism compares the contrasting relationship of Muslim activists in Britain and France to what Peace dubs the 'alter-globalization' movement (AGM) in preference to the more familiar 'anti-globalization' movement which he regards as imprecise. ... this is a welcome study that provides a serious examination of Muslim participation in a significant social movement." (Yahya Birt, The Muslim World, Vol. 37 (1), 2016)
