Muslim Integration in Europe
EUMC concludes that there is scope for anonymous data collection for statis-
tical purposes in member states that could provide a wealth of information,
which does not identify the individual and is collected under strict codes of
conduct, about the social situation of Muslim communities with respect to, for
example, employment, housing, and education.11 Currently research on the
situation of Muslims in western democracies relies on mostly proxy data,
referring to nationality and ethnicity.12
The practice of avoiding data collection relating to religious orientation
because of privacy concerns contradicts developments in other policy areas.
Immigration and security policymaking in the EU member states has been

criticized for breaking with entrenched national norms as well as for the
diminishing respect shown for the civil liberties and human rights of immi-
grants and citizens alike.13 Some authors argue that it is the responsibility of
the European Union to provide guidance on data matters in areas necessary
to further initiatives undertaken by European institutions. These include
preventing and combating racism and xenophobia, a sphere in which article
29 of the Treaty establishing the European Community gives police and judi-
cial authorities heightened powers to cooperate. . . .14 Other supra-European
agencies have similarly been criticized for their lack of data collection initia-
tives necessary to accomplish community specified goals. Milcher and Ivanov
for example, argue that the United Nations Development Program Vulnera-
bility Project has not sufficiently led in stimulating the collection of data on
Roma and other ethnic groups.15
Lack of data on Muslim integration may be a greater problem in European
states that provide a social welfare cushion for their residents than in the
US, where the state plays little role in the social integration of its residents.16
But continuing voter support for political parties with an anti-foreigner
stance and persistent questions about the legitimacy of Islam in the European
religious landscape17 make elected officials in European states wary of initia-
tives to measure and track Muslim integration. Abuse of personal data by the
fascist regimes of World War II provides a historical context for these con-
cerns.18 While unofficial studies by private researchers, non-profit organiza-
tions, and thinktanks are increasingly undertaken (for example by the Pew
Global Attitudes Initiative, and the Eurobarometer),19 their results may be
ignored (as the Open Society Institutes analysis suggests) or dismissed as inac-
curate by those who do not support the goals of the organization and do not
want to devote resources to Muslim integration. Unofficial studies also fail to
provide the detailed, focused comparative European data sought by the Euro-
pean Parliaments benchmarking effort.20
The policy areas of immigration, immigrant integration, and internal
security are notoriously difficult to manage through state intervention as well
as being highly politicized. For governments, a broadening of data collection
may well be useful to improve the quality of policy; however, it would be
226 P. Irving Jackson
Despite the difficult political terrain in this area of data collection, the
European Commission has nevertheless initiated an effort toward the
systematic production of harmonized Community statistics on international
immigration and protection, admittedly confined for now to data proxy to the
question of Muslim integration, but with an apparent strategic view to
improving knowledge of the socioeconomic integration of immigrants in the
long term.21 Moves are also afoot towards a possible EU-wide benchmarking
effort on immigrant integration.22
In light of the growing pressure for a change in the way that data are
drawn and used as well as the broader political context in which national
governments operate, this paper examines data available on the situation of
Muslims in the Netherlands, Germany, France, Britain, and, as a non-EU
point of comparison, the United States. The four European states considered
merit particular attention for several reasons. First, they display an instruc-
tive range of alternative relationships between religion and the state as well
as strategies for coordinating the ethnic and state identities.23 Secondly, they
are likely to continue to dominate the EU-level debate on such issues, thus
leaving a particular mark on any Europe-wide standards. With their organi-
zation of the Groningen (2004) and Potsdam (2007) ministerial meetings, the
Netherlands and Germany have so far been the only member states to really
exploit official EU channels to advance the debate most closely related to that
concerning Muslimsthe integration of immigrants. France and the UK,
meanwhile, have been particularly active at raising questions of Muslim
integration within the framework of the G6 meetings as part of an effort to
influence the EU agenda.24
The involvement of these states in European discussion of Muslim
integration is also, no doubt, a result of the size of their Muslim populations.
Of the 25 EU states examined in 2006 by the European Monitoring Center on
Racism and Xenophobia in Muslims in the European Union, the six states
estimated to have the numerically largest Muslim population are (in
descending order)France, Germany, the UK, Spain, the Netherlands, and
Italy.25 As a percentage of the total population, Muslims in both Spain and
Italy are estimated to be only 12%; while Muslims in France are estimated

9.4% of the Dutch population, and are of Turkish, African, South American, or
Asianbut not Indonesian or Japanesebackground), under the designation
ethnic minorities.39 Of the allochtonen, it is the ethnic minorities who are most
likely to be Muslim; the use of these individuals (rather than the broader cate-
gory of allochtonen) as the basis of proxy statistics on Muslims would promise
greater accuracy.
In the UK, the 2001 Census for the first time asked a voluntary question
on religious orientation, complementing the data it gathers on ethnicity,
including racial distinctions within ethnic groups. Researchers have, however,
approached the UK data on religion carefully, primarily because questions
posed on religious background differed across the UK, but also because of
problems with the data collection and its lack of comparability with questions
from the previous census rounds.40 Despite these initial problems, the ques-
tions on religion initiated a national effort to understand and track the social,
economic, and educational progress of Muslims in general, separately from
their membership in racial and ethnic groups likely to be Muslim. This
suggests official recognition of both the importance of Muslim identity as an
aspect of minority status and the need for new data permitting the differenti-
ation of ethnicity from religious orientation in the examination of inequality.
Inconsistency of data collection on religion within and among the four
states hampers efforts to compare the situation of their Muslim popula-
tions. In their preparation of reports on the Benchmarking effort and on
Muslims in the European Union, investigators examined data gathered
(respectively) by the National Action Plans (NAPs) in their delineation of
target groups for Social Protection and Social Inclusion (SPSI), and by the
National Focal Points (NFPs) in their regular reports (RAXEN) on individ-
ual states.41 The 2006 NAPs defined the following arrangements of target
groups for SPSI efforts: ethnic minorities in the UK; immigrants in
France and Germany; and ethnic minorities and immigrants in the Neth-
erlands.42 While the RAXEN reports prepared by NFPs make reference to
problems of religious violence, Islamophobia, and anti-Semitism, their data
on these topics is based on criminal justice sources and NGOs without
specific measurement of the religious orientation of victims or offenders.
230 P. Irving Jackson
Beckford, Joly, and Khosrokhavar compare the situation in the UK, where
the National Census and the Prison Service of England and Wales gather sta-
tistics on ethnicity and religion, to that in France, where such official categoriza-
tion is prohibited.51 Unofficial identity attribution occurs in France, nonetheless,
largely by prison officers, many of whom have little understanding of Islam
and associate it with the young men from the Banlieues.52 The team of
researchers led by Beckford found that in French prisons, the lack of institu-
tional structures means that Islam does not constitute a standardized frame
of reference.53 As a result, rather than following a set of institutionally
prescribed rituals and rules, inmates who wish to identify with Islam create
an individualized, secular version that permits a radical ideological
identification with the poor and the oppressed elsewhere.54
As for political protagonists, it is EU-level actors that have arguably been
most active in their calls for statistical change. The European Parliament, like
the European Commission, has, however, focused its calls for changes to the
way that statistics are collected and used, not on Muslims, but on the related
questions of immigration and immigrant integration. The European Parlia-
ment Benchmarking effort focuses on legally resident third-country nation-
als (i.e., migrants who are not citizens of one of the member states), or
migrants as defined by the UN and EU.55 Muslim cultural identity is
excluded from the list of minority cultural identities to be protected.
Other EU bodies have nevertheless turned their attention specifically to
the question of data on Muslims. The 2009 Annual Work Program of the
232 P. Irving Jackson
European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA)56 specifies as its aim
the collection and dissemination of objective and comparable data: Reporting
on the situation concerning racism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia,
and related intolerance is cited as a project toward that end.57 In this
endeavor, the FRA is, to some extent, responding to problems cited in research
by national study groups. The National Focal Point (NFP) reports (RAXEN)
produced under the aegis of the FRA have also served as a mouthpiece for
various national bodies to highlight what they view as the deleterious lacunae
in data. Beginning with the view that racial violence is embedded in social
processes of social exclusion the Commission for Racial Equality in Britain

insecurity and, in the case of North Africans, their loyalty to France is ques-
tioned because of their adherence to Islam.62 Olivier Roy laments that the
constant association of Islam and immigration in the mind[s] of the public
and of politicians . . . continues to have a negative effect . . .63 Fact-finding
agencies concur: [. . .] a large numberpossibly the majorityof asylum
seekers are Islamic, so the issues of Islamophobia and the panic over asylum
overlap with one another.64
The existential security threat posed by Muslims to European societies
even stretches to include the survival of the nation-states very values and
cultural essence. Werner Schiffauer asserts that the . . . sense of moral panic

sought to use European cooperation as a means to expand the data that they
hold on individuals 75 and particularly on non-nationals.76 Moreover, the EUs
framework of Justice and Home Affairs cooperation has most often served as a
means for national governments to overhaul the kinds of national rules and
norms that are apparently such an obstacle in this case.77 And, indeed, it has
typically been just the kind of loose coalition of European institutions and
scholars which is today calling for an expansion of statistics that has previ-
ously sought to prevent this kind of data collection and other apparently
illiberal policies.78
This is no doubt a caricature of a highly nuanced reality, but the situation
is nevertheless odd.79 To the frustration of many scholars, standards of data
collection are not simply molded as an objective response to policy problems. If
information is power, national governments have greater incentive to expand
data collection if it will equate to an expansion of their clout and discretion, in
addition to enabling them to clarify policy problems or promote solutions.
The capacity of non-totalitarian states to influence human movement and
behavior is very limited. Some degree of policy failure in immigration control
or social integration is a given. This is a political reality of which governments
are aware, but which they choose not to communicate to publics in order to
safeguard their political survival in areas of high sovereignty.80 An absence of
relevant data facilitates this.
In short, although the expanded collection of data might well bring an
improvement in policy-making, any resulting political gains falling to national
governments would be more than wiped out by the growing public awareness
of remaining policy failures. The previous efforts to expand data collection
that national governments have appeared keenest on have frequently
concerned data not generally released into the public domain.81 By contrast,
the kinds of data involved in efforts to improve Muslim integration programs
are generally supposed to be available to publics and civil society.
If expanded data collection at the national level would bring with it an
increase in domestic accountability for governments, EU cooperation bears
the unwelcome prospect of increased international accountability. European
integration, and the resulting interdependence of national economies and

Areas of Interest
Efforts to understand the characteristics and integration problems of
Muslims in European states are hampered by a lack of information specific to
their circumstances. The use of proxy groups in assessing the integration of
Muslims blends several sets of acculturation and discrimination problems and
avoids examination of significant acknowledged concerns of integration that
are unique to Muslims, separately from their national heritage. These include
both macro- and micro-level institutional accommodations to Islam.
236 P. Irving Jackson
people born in the country (France) or the total labour force (Netherlands)
paint a picture of reduced life chances for Muslims. EUMC for example,
describes the 2004 unemployment rate of twenty percent for foreigners as
almost twice the general average in Germany.99 In France, 2005 research
is reported to indicate a foreigner unemployment rate far higher than that
for people born in France, and the situation for young people of Maghrebian
origin is described as notably worse. The 16% unemployment rate of the
Netherlands allochtonen (those of migrant descent) in 2005 is cited in con-
trast to 6.5 percent of the total labor force.100 It was, however, noted above
that statistics that can only capture the situation of foreigners may ignore the

integrate than members of their host nations recognize. For example, the Pew
poll of Muslims in Great Britain, France, and Germany (the Netherlands was
not included in the study) found that Muslims . . . are generally positive
about conditions in their host nation . . . more positive than the general [pub-
lic]. . . . However, many Muslims, especially in Britain, worry about the future
of Muslims in their country.117 Muslims in France, Great Britain, and
Germany were more likely than the general pool of respondents in their host
nations to agree that Muslims want to adopt the customs and way of life of
the country into which they immigrate.118 Thirty percent of German Muslims
agreed with this statement (in contrast to 17% of the general public), 41% of
Downloaded By: [Jackson, Pamela Irving] At: 01:45 2 December 2009
British Muslims agreed (vs. 22% of the British general public), and 78% of
French Muslims agreed (contrasting 46% of the general public in France).119
The primary issues among European Muslims are, in many ways, similar
to those of non-Muslims. The study indicated, for example, that unemploy-
ment was the greatest concern among Muslims in the European nations
examined. But, as the results above suggest, the poll also underscored the
diversity of the experiences of Muslims in Europe and of their opinions.120
US Point of Comparison
The US Census does not collect data on religious affiliation. Public Law
94-521, passed in 1976, introduced the mid-decade census of population
(beginning in 1985), removed the possibility of imprisonment for willful fail-
ure to answer census questions, and made it illegal to require individuals to
disclose their religious beliefs, church, or other religious group membership.
The US Census directs those interested in questions related to religious
membership in the United States to the American Religious Identification Sur-
vey (ARIS),121 the Association of Religion Data Archives (ARDA) and other non-
official sources. In terms of official data availability, then, the situation of
Muslims in the United States is much like that of Muslims in western European
societies. But the much more limited role of the state in integration processes in
the United States122 may reduce the consequences of this lack of official data.
Nor is there the same pressure for state intervention on these matters in
the US as there is in the four European case-studies. The failure of Muslims
(who constitute 1% or less of the US population) to integrate has not been
problematized in the same way that it has in many western European
nations. This may be, to some extent, because Muslims are more affluent, edu-
cated, and politically active in the US than in Europe; but it may also be a
result of the general sense of individualism, the belief that state policy is lim-
ited to the removal of barriers to full participation.123 For example, a plan to
map Muslim Angelenos in order to prevent radicalization . . . angered civil
rights groups, which say it is no better than racial profiling.124
The US state plays little role in religious education or support for religious
organizations, offers little in the way of employment and income support, and

CONCLUSIONS
The EUs efforts to foster inclusion and protection of minority heritage are
being undermined as member nations seek to protect the national identity
image from extension.129 National historical conceptualizations of secularity
have been frozen in time, despite the fact that they conflict with the economic
and social goals of EU membership. The utilization of talent throughout the
workforceso key to the EUs intervention in the economic sphereis blocked
by rules that require a kind of linear assimilation that seeks to force a change
in personal habits on the part of many who are trying to forge a blended
religio/ethnic identity.

accommodate them; rather, they must be moved toward accommodation with the
system in ways that make it difficult for them to take the best of both worlds,
and that reduce the possibilities for gradual integration on their part.132
By relying upon the conflation of Muslim with foreigner in statistics,
state support of ideological secularism can serve to reify the public image of
Muslims as outsiders, the source of public problems and threatening to the
system. And conversely, rendering Muslim minorities statistically invisible
when they take on citizenship, can reduce the practical salience of religious
issues in the true outsider status in these individuals. A glance at the U.S. as
a point of comparison suggests that it is another historically entrenched norm
of state-society relations that makes the problem of disidentification so press-
ingnamely, the expectation and acceptance of the large role played by
European states in social integration.
Future research extending the European Parliaments Benchmarking
effort,133 utilizing its definition of the eight key facets of integration to exam-
ine self-identified Muslims, would yield information valuable to the benchmark-
ing initiative and supportive of the integration goals of the European Council.
The Benchmarking Report underscores the Council of Europes core definition
of well-being as central to the integration effort and focused on the reduction
of disparities and polarizations.134 Movement toward this aim with regard
to those who think of themselves as both Muslim and European would
mitigate the sources of conflict and violence outlined in reports by European
fact-finding agencies like the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and
Xenophobia (2006), non-governmental organizations such as the Open Society
Institute, and research organizations, including the Migration Policy Institute
and the Bertelsmann Stiftung.135
