本文比较了 1989 年至 2001 年英国和澳大利亚反穆斯林种族主义的兴起，作为评估 9 月 11 日之后仇视伊斯兰情绪高涨在多大程度上是这两个国家现有种族主义模式发展的基础。概述了穆斯林人口各自的移民和定居历史，以及相关的移民和“民族事务”政策以及由此产生的人口统计数据。这篇文章追溯了这一时期在英国和澳大利亚发展起来的仇外心理意识形态。它记录了从反亚裔和反阿拉伯种族主义到反穆斯林种族主义的转变，反映并回应了少数群体的身份和文化政治的变化。它概述了国家针对有关民族和宗教少数群体的种族和族裔目标的实例，并假定这种情况与种族仇恨、诽谤和歧视行为模式的转变之间存在因果关系。
This article compares the rise of anti-Muslim racism in Britain and Australia, from 1989 to 2001, as a foundation for assessing the extent to which the upsurge of Islamophobia after 11 September was a development of existing patterns of racism in these two countries. The respective histories of immigration and settlement by Muslim populations are outlined, along with the relevant immigration and ‘ethnic affairs’ policies and the resulting demographics. The article traces the ideologies of xenophobia that developed in Britain and Australia over this period. It records a transition from anti-Asian and anti-Arab racism to anti-Muslim racism, reflected in and responding to changes in the identities and cultural politics of the minority communities. It outlines instances of the racial and ethnic targeting by the state of the ethnic and religious minorities concerned, and postulates a causal relationship between this and the shifting patterns of acts of racial hatred, vilification and discrimination.
