Summary:
"Across Europe, many Muslims seek to gain respect through exemplary behavior. This book draws parallels with other minority citizens to examine this under-researched path of action. It unravels the politics of respectability of French Muslim leaders, shedding light on class and ethics in quiet minority politics"-- Provided by publisher
