This book examines the Islamic headscarf cases of the Court of Justice of the European Union and places these in context of the Islamophobia existing across Europe. It assesses how EU law can best protect women who want to wear headscarves at work for religious reasons and why this protection is important not only for the women but also for the EU.

In 2000, the EU adopted a Directive against discrimination on the grounds of racial or ethnic origin. This book provides an evaluation of the Race Directive. It charts the historical development of the Directive, looks at models of equality, and questions how successful the Race Directive has been.
