Description: An examination of Muslim men, focusing on the stereotypes and stigma these men face, the cultural roots of these prejudices, and the effect on assimilation and possible citizenship, through an ethnography of Turkish immigrants in Germany.

Review Quotes: "[This book] make[s] important points . . . Ewing exposes the obsessive preoccupation of Europeans with Muslim gender roles. A thinly concealed racism is indeed often behind feminist rhetoric adopted by individuals and groups who all too commonly ignore homegrown misogyny. Stolen Honor is valuable because it gives an account of this phenomenon in a German context."--Deborah Gorham, Men and Masculinities
