Political Islam in Algeria. CEPS Working Document No. 268, May 2007
The recent legislative elections of May 2007 in Algeria have shown how complex the evolution of Islamist parties is in this country and how crucial an understanding of these mechanisms has become for Europe. Since the civil war of the 1990s, Islamist parties have experienced increased political participation. Drawing on interviews with various Algerian Islamist actors, this paper analyses how Islamist parties are building a new relationship with democratic mechanisms in Europe. In light of these recent changes, a reconsideration of EU democracy promotion policies is now necessary

Acteurs internationaux et islam de France
■ Samir Amghar, International Players and French Islam
With roughly five million Muslims on its national territory, France has become a focal point for a certain number of international players who believe that exercising control over this population is a sure way to increase their power. This article attempts to construct a typology of the various international players vying for dominance over Islam in France. First, there are those countries from which most of the Muslims in France originate (Algeria, Morocco and Turkey). These States are making use of Islam in France as a way of controlling their expatriate populations. They also deploy their religion as a bastion against the rhetoric of Islamists who corne from these same countries. Second, Saudi Arabia, via the intermediary of para-State structures such as the World Islamic League, or through its Islamic universities, is developing networks and agents in order to turn itself into an Islamic religious superpower. Finally, transnational Islamic movements such as the Union of Islamic Organizations in France, close to the Muslim Brotherhoods, are building a transnational network with the aim of becoming indispensable players in the re-islamization of France.Trois acteurs extérieurs pèsent sur l'organisation de l'islam français : les États du Sud, qui s'efforcent de prolonger en France leur politique interne d'organisation du religieux ; l'Arabie Saoudite, qui voit depuis plusieurs décennies sa projection religieuse comme une ressource politique capitale ; les firmes multinationales du religieux, enfin. Sous ces influences croisées, les musulmans de France tentent de se réapproprier un islam à la mesure de l'Hexagone.Amghar. Acteurs internationaux et islam de France.

European Islam: Challenges for Society and Public Policy. CEPS Paperbacks. November 2007
Works on Islam in Europe often read like a juxtaposition of national case studies covering the history and perhaps the sociology of immigrant groups in the countries considered. Although the sociology of Islam is well-developed in certain European countries such as France, Germany and the UK, it is only in its infancy as a discipline at the European level. The chapters in this work, by leading European experts in the field, therefore aim to supply policy-makers, analysts and civil society leaders with an inventory of the main issues concerning the presence of Islam in Europe. The key message is that European Islam exists as a powerful transnational phenomenon, and European policy must keep pace with this reality.
It is evident from exchanges between European Islamic actors and policy-makers themselves that Europe is increasingly the forum of choice for devising norms and principles regarding Islam, starting with existing
European legislation against discrimination in the labour market, and progressing on from there. European Islam is already a reality for Muslims. How can the EU institutions and its member states catch up with this political reality? Beyond domestic European affairs, there are also questions
of how issues relating to Europe’s Muslim communities factor into the foreign policies of the European Union, primarily in its relations with the Muslim states of the Mediterranean basin. These merit consideration in positive and participatory terms, rather than simply in the context of the West’s latest preoccupation with security, immigration and the fight against terrorism. Europe’s new generation of Muslims can also become a valuable human resource in the Union’s foreign policy endeavours to come
to terms with the challenges of globalised Islam
