This book explores Islamophobia in Australia, shifting attention from its victims to its perpetrators by examining the nature of people's responses to the Muslim 'Other' in everyday life. Based on ethnographic fieldwork, it sheds light on the problematisations of Muslims amongst Anglo and non-Anglo Australians, investigating the impact of whiteness on minorities' reactions to Muslims. Demonstrating the ways in which Australia's histories and logics of racial exclusion produce processes in which whiteness habituates 'racialising' behaviour, it shows how national and global events, moral panics, and political discourse infiltrate everyday encounters, producing practices of Islamophobia.
