N2 - Research on Islam and Muslim minorities in Europe has generallybeen focused on the active representatives of these groups, in the formof research on the development of movements and organizations, theirlegal and political status, activities and relations with the widerpolitical contexts both at home, in the countries of origin and in theMuslim world at large. On the other hand, social sciences researchon Muslims and Islam has tended to be focused on Muslims as ethnicminority groups linked into the broader fields of race relations andmigration research. Since the 1980s researchers in the fields of racerelations and migration have increasingly mobilized ‘Muslims’ and‘Islam’ as a common denominator. Initially, among social scientists themotivation seems often to have been the necessity of refining largerunmanageable ethnic groupings.
