Abstract:

'Anti-racist Discourse on Muslims in the Australian Parliament' examines
anti-racist discourse in contemporary Australian politics, in particular, how
politicians contest and challenge racism against a minority group that does
not constitute a traditional ‘race’. Using critical discourse analysis, this
book firstly deconstructs the racist, xenophobic and discriminatory arguments
against Muslims. Secondly, it highlights the anti-racist counter-discourse to
these arguments. Since blatantly racist statements are less common nowadays,
the book focuses on manifestations of ‘culturalist racism’. It does this by
investigating how talk about Muslims positions them as not Australian or as
not belonging to Australia – the book takes such ‘discursive exclusion from
the nation’ as one of the most widespread forms of ‘culturalist racism’ in
Western liberal-democracies. In addition to contributing to the theoretical
discussion on the relationship between Muslims, racism and anti-racism, the
book expands on methods that apply critical discourse analysis and the
discourse-historical approach by providing a practical guide to analysing
anti-racist political discourses.
