ABSTRACT
Is European Islam possible? Does European Islam think? Does European Islamic thought exist? How do studies of Islam and Muslims of Europe read the current and future of European Islam? What are the main trends of the study of Islam in Europe, and what are their limitations? And who speaks for Islam and Muslims? This heavy introduction puts these questions in order and introduces European Islam as a concept, as an idea, and as a horizon for thought over religion and Islam in modernity.
