Description
It has become a cliche to say that globalization processes have caused the world to become smaller and smaller and more interconnected in economic, political and cultural terms. Without undermining the significance of the effects of globalization on each area, its impact on cultural issues has become more important in the Western European context. The growing migratory flows to European countries have led to the inevitable interaction between Western culture and the other cultures in the world, and specifically Islamic culture. In the post-September 11 era, the widespread belief regarding the famous thesis of a 'clash of civilizations', which is based on the idea that "cultural differences are deemed to be highly resistant to change and increased interaction has produced conflict", (1) has become very popular. This argument highlights the prevalence of culture, not politics or economics, "that would dominate and divide the world". (2) The incidents of September 11 had a detrimental effect on what were already negative and racist images of Islam in the West. (3) While Muslims are mostly portrayed as irrational, uncivilized, threatening and uniquely fundamentalist, Muslim populations and societies with different cultural, political and religious traditions are homogenized to embody certain specific, negative characteristics. (4) In the process, Islam is demonized and made to appear incompatible with more "progressive" Western values and civilization and Muslim residents of Europe are believed to represent "threats" to Europe. (5) The recent attacks on the mosques in Germany and the Netherlands highlight the fact that any ordinary Muslim who goes to a mosque can be perceived as an Islamic fundamentalist or terrorist and stigmatized as someone who poses a threat to the country's security. In this context, as Fekete remarks, "a culture of suspicion" (6) has been created in Europe in the aftermath of September 11, under the guise of the "war on terror". (7) This has resulted in the implementation of racist measures against the Muslim migrants living there and in Islam becoming a racial category "naturalized" through culturalist (cultural difference) discourse.
