Jacobson, Jessica (1997) Islam in transition: religion and identity among British Pakistani youth. London, UK: Routledge. ISBN 9781138007130.
Abstract
Book synopsis: Islam in Transition focuses on the ways in which Islamic religion still engenders powerful loyalties within what is now a predominantly secular society and how, in their continual adherence to their religion, many young British Pakistanis find a welcome sense of stability and permanence. By presenting material collected in field-work study and by using extensive quotations from interviews, the author argues that in a world where concepts of identity are always being challenged traditional sources of authority and allegiance still survive.
