We now have a generation--Muslim and non-Muslim--who has grown up only knowing a world at war on terror, and who has been socialised in a climate of widespread Islamophobia, surveillance, and suspicion. In \u003ci\u003eComing of Age in the War on Terror\u003c\/i\u003e, award-winning writer Randa Abdel-Fattah interrogates the impact of all this on young people's political consciousness and their trust towards adults and the societies they live in. Drawing on local interviews but global in scope, this book is the first to examine the lives of a generation for whom the rise of the far-right and the growing polarisation of politics seem normal. It's about time we hear what they have to say.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRanda Abdel-Fattah\u003c\/b\u003e is a multi-award-winning author and scholar who is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Sociology at Macquarie University.
