National manifestations of anti-Muslim racism reflect both transnational and local self-imaginings and relations of power. In this article, Carr and Haynes present Irish anti-Muslim racism as exemplifying the confluence of such forces. They argue that Muslims are caught in a clash of racializations; in this instance, between exclusionary Irishness and racialized Muslimness. Both operate to expose Muslims to racist activity while concomitantly excluding them from the protection of the State. Carr and Haynes argue that the State's failure to tackle anti-Muslim racism is part of a wider dismantling of the apparatus to address racism, which reflects both the neoliberalization of 'race' and the racing of neoliberalism. In support of these arguments, Carr and Haynes present extensive primary data which evidences the complex intersectional relationship between religion, 'race', ethnicity and gender in the lived experience of anti-Muslim racism and underline its existence as a cohesive phenomenon.

“…The Royal College of Surgeons was a key venue in the arrival of Islam in Ireland, in the late 1950s. In 1959, a number of Muslims students rented a space at the Koinonia House in Dublin (Sakaranaho 2006;Khan 2011) and thereby established an institutional practice which extended to other State venues and facilities. The Dublin Islamic Society was formed by Muslim students endeavoring for a forum where they and their peers could develop an aid structure to other students (Sakaranaho 2006;Flynn 2006;Scharbrodt 2012).…”

Este artículo compara la acomodación política del Islam en Portugal y en la República de Irlanda desde el término de los años 50. Mucha literatura tiene como foco los sospechos usuales, como Alemania, Francia, Holanda y Gran Bretaña, contextos con comunidades musulmanas de tamaño considerable y establecimiento de considerable duración. Por su turno, no se conoce mucho sobre la institucionalización del Islam en Estados en los cuales la presencia de musulmanes es más reciente y sigue siendo relativamente pequeña. Portugal e Irlanda son dos Estados periféricos, de pequeña dimensión y de matriz católica. Sus populaciones musulmanas representan debajo de 1% de la población total. Los dos casos providencian un teste único a la tesis de Jonathan Laurence sobre la convergencia de los procesos de institucionalización en la Europa Occidental en contextos de diferenciación histórica, política e institucional. Nuestras conclusiones apuntan al hecho que Portugal converge conforme la sugerencia de Laurence, Irlanda no es un caso de convergencia. Lo explicamos recurriendo a dos puntos. Las comunidades musulmanas en Irlanda tienen niveles de diversidad intracomunitaria mayores y eso explica la mayor dificultad de movilización. La posición de la Iglesia Católica Romana es el segundo punto. En Portugal, ese agente institucionalizado tiene un papel de gatekeeper y intermediación mas fuerte que su homólogo irlandés. El proceso de cooptación del Islam es una ilustración. En Irlanda, la Iglesia Católica tiene un papel más ambiguo y no tiene las capacidades ni los recursos para operar como su homóloga portuguesa en el contexto de la institucionalización del Islam en Irlanda.
