| Summary |
"Ruminations comprises social critique, political analysis, and a biographical description of Tahir Abbas, a social scientist working on issues of ethnicity, social conflict, and politics. Abbas was born in Birmingham, UK, and has lived and worked in London, Istanbul, and The Hague, Netherlands. In this autoethnographic account, he examines the intersections of race, class, ethnicity, and Islam in the context of the British Muslim landscape through his subjective experiences: growing up in Birmingham; navigating the precariousness of the education system; working in central government during the 9/11 attacks; and eventually becoming a leading expert in the field." |
