This is a disturbing account of the campaign to promote fear and hatred
of Muslims in the United States and Europe, from the 'War on Terror' to
Trump's travel ban. Nathan Lean takes us through a world of
conservative bloggers, right-wing talk show hosts, evangelical religious
leaders and politicians, united in their efforts to demonise Muslims as
the new enemy of Western civilization. Lean uncovers their scare
tactics, traces their sources of funding and exposes the ideologies that
drive their lucrative propaganda machine.
This second edition
includes new material on the Trump campaign and presidency, tracking
the rise to power of some of the Islamophobia Industry's most extreme
figures. Writers from Breitbart, liberal anti-Muslim campaigners such as
Bill Maher, and Trump-influencers such as Steve Bannon, Newt Gingrich
and John Bolton are all put in the spotlight. This shocking and
enlightening book is now more relevant than ever.
