Description
Granada, once considered Spain's most Moorish city, is now home to a growing Muslim population. This shift has led to tensions surrounding ethnic and religious pluralism.
Mikaela H. Rogozen-Soltar explores how residents of Granada mobilize historical narratives about the city's Muslim past to navigate these tensions. She examines the gendered, racial, and political dimensions of this new multiculturalism, including the coexistence of Muslim-themed tourism and Islamic cultural institutions with anti-Muslim sentiments.
This study offers insight into the complex ways in which people in Granada are navigating their identities and communities in a rapidly changing context.
