520    "Securitizing Islam examines the impact of 9/11 on the 
       lives and perceptions of individuals, focusing on the ways
       in which identities in Britain have been affected in 
       relation to Islam. 'Securitization' describes the 
       processes by which a particular group or issue comes to be
       seen as a threat, and thus subject to the perceptions and 
       actions which go with national security. Croft applies 
       this idea to the way in which the attitudes of individuals
       to their security and to Islam and Muslims have been 
       transformed, affecting the everyday lives of both Muslims 
       and non-Muslims. He argues that Muslims have come to be 
       seen as the 'Other', outside the contemporary conception 
       of Britishness. Reworking securitisation theory and 
       drawing in the sociology of ontological security studies, 
       Securitizing Islam produces a theoretically innovative 
       framework for understanding a contemporary phenomenon that
       affects the everyday lives of millions"--|cProvided by
