While the core of Denmark’s identity is being part of the ‘the West,’ which was ‘at war’ with the Muslim world during this period, Argentina defines its identity in opposition to Western countries like Britain and the U.S., leaving it outside ‘the West,’ and Islam not seen as a threat.

Abstract

Following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Islamophobia exploded across ‘the West,’ but particularly in Europe. While Muslims were suffering attacks across Europe, the experience of Muslims in Latin America was markedly different, with almost no perceptible rise in Islamophobia. In the roughly 10 year period between the attacks of September 11, and the start of the Syrian civil war, why did Islamophobia rise in ‘the West,’ but not in Latin America? This article attempts to answer this question through an analysis of the civilizational identities of both regions, in particular the countries of Denmark and Argentina. While the core of Denmark’s identity is being part of the ‘the West,’ which was ‘at war’ with the Muslim world during this period, Argentina defines its identity in opposition to Western countries like Britain and the U.S., leaving it outside ‘the West,’ and Islam not seen as a threat.

  1. For this examination of the rise of anti-Muslim sentiment, a ‘West’ comprised of Europe, North and South America, Australia and New Zealand is appropriate because the conflict is most often framed (by the media, politicians, and scholars) as a Huntingtonian ‘Clash of Civilizations’ between Islam and ‘Christian-Oriented Nations’ or between ‘Islamic Cultures and those of the Christianity-based Western Societies.’ John P. Synott, Global and International Studies: Transdisciplinary Perspectives, (Victoria: Social Science Press, 2004), p. 289
  2. For the purposes of this paper, the region of ‘Europe’ will be demarcated according to the boundaries proposed by Samuel Huntington in “The Clash of Civilizations.” Huntington’s image of Europe follows closely that of the current EU (27 member-states) along with the four Western European non-members (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland), and the candidate countries of Albania, Montenegro, Northern Macedonia, and Serbia. The key to this definition of Europe is the shared common experiences and values (like religion); this is why Turkey, although an EU candidate country, is not considered a part of ‘Europe’. “Anti-Muslim Sentiment Is Becoming Institutionalized in West, Islamophobia Like 1930s Anti-Semitism: Islamic Forum Head,” AFP, (November 5, 2010), retrieved March 25, 2020, from http:// www.alarabiya.net/articles/2010/11/05/124969.html; “States Want Investigation into Western Media on Religion, OIC Wants UN Action on West’s ‘Islamophobia,’” Reuters, (June 16, 2010), retrieved March 25, 2020, from http://www.alarabiya.net/articles/2010/06/16/111522.html; Jean -Yves Camus, “The Use of Racist, Anti-Semitic and Xenophobic Elements in Political Discourse: High-level Panel Meeting on the Occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination,” European Commission against Racism and Intolerance, (March 21, 2005), retrieved March 25, 2020, from https://tandis.odihr.pl/ bitstream/20.500.12389/19625/1/02591.pdf; Anthony Faiola, “Anti-Muslim Feeling on the Rise in Sweden,” The Seattle Times, (November 6, 2010), retrieved March 25, 2020, from https://www.seattletimes. com/nation-world/anti-muslim-feeling-on-the-rise-in-sweden/
