His Lettre – a 92-page pamphlet – looks at political and social context to the word, Islamophobia (Islamophobie – identical to the English one, in meaning, if not in use): the most important of the, many, charges against Charlie. He explores its ambiguities, and the false politics that it is embedded in. If he is polemical, then the booklet is a polemic. If it is heartfelt, we can appreciate the emotion all too well today. https://tendancecoatesy.wordpress.com/2015/06/12/lettre-aux-escrocs-de-lislamophobie-qui-font-le-jeu-des-racists-charb-review-article/ Andrew Coates _ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/amithrgupta%40gmail.com _ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
