Islamophobia, Xenophobia, and Racism
Abstract
The term Islamophobia; It is an explanatory concept introduced to draw attention to Islam
and anti-Muslim sentiments. In the academic literature, there is an increasing inclination
towards the analysis of xenophobic behavior and rhetoric. This negative trend, which feeds
Islamophobia and rises especially in the Western world, has historical, social, political and
psychological causes and consequences. In this respect, this study includes literature research
on Islamophobia or the fear of Islam. In order to understand Islamophobia and how
it manifests, the concept of xenophobia is examined first. It is also included in the research
that Islamophobia is a special type of xenophobia, but under certain conditions it has implications
that go beyond this issue. There is a considerable literature on xenophobia and
anti-Islam at the global level. It has been determined that the phenomenon of Islamiphobia,
which is observed in Western societies, has strong links between concepts such as xenophobia,
racism and localism, which are also common in these countries.
