Muslim integration is measurable through residential settlement and identity attitudes.
Evidence
If we turn away from the discursive accounts towards a more applied analysis of Muslim integration, we should ask: what indicators are best suited to measuring success and failure of Muslim integration? The indicators identified by the commentators above combine behaviour (in this case residential settlement – or where people chose to live and form communities) and attitude (in terms of how people identify, and how strongly). Using these two indicators, what can we say about patterns of Muslim integration in Britain? — A. Hussain, N. Meer, Framing Muslim Integration, 461
Categorization
- DEFINE: Offers the chapter’s operative definition of the integration indicators: behaviour (residential settlement) plus attitude (strength of identity).
- SEED: The explicit two-indicator framework is a potential spine for an essay critiquing how definitions of integration silently decide which outcomes count as success.
