Eurabia is a political neologism. The concept was coined by Bat Ye'or in the early 2000s. Bat Ye'Or (pen name of Gisele Littman) claims a conspiracy of Europe, allegedly led by France and Arab powers, to Islamise and Arabise Europe, thereby weakening its existing culture and undermining an alleged previous alignment with the U.S. and Israel.〔〔 The term has gained some public interest and has been used and discussed across a wide range of the political spectrum, including far-right activists,〔 counterjihadis and different sorts of antiislamist and conservative activists. Bat Ye'Or’s “Mother conspiracy theory” has been used for further subtheories.〔 The narrative grew important in expressing Islamophobic sentiments and was used by movements like Stop Islamisation of Europe. It gained renewed interest after the 9/11 events and the use of the term by 2011 Norway attacker Anders Behring Breivik. It is as well a part of classical Anti-Europeanism, a strong influence in American culture and American exceptionalism〔(Anti-Europeanism and Euroscepticism in the United States ), Patrick Chamorel No 25, EUI-RSCAS Working Papers from European University Institute (EUI), Robert Schuman Centre of Advanced Studies (RSCAS) 2004〕 which sometimes sees Europe on the decline or as a rising rival power, or, as is the case here, both. == Basic narrative == In ''Eurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis'', Bat Ye'or claims that Eurabia is the result of the Euro-Arab Dialogue, based on an allegedly French-led European policy intended to increase European power against the United States by aligning its interests with those of the Arab countries. During the 1973 oil crisis, the European Economic Community (predecessor of the European Union), had entered into the Euro-Arab Dialogue (EAD) with the Arab League.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Euro-Arab dialogue ) ()〕 Ye'or claims it as a primary cause of alleged European hostility to Israel, referring to joint Euro-Arab foreign policies that she characterises as anti-American and anti-Zionist.〔 Ye'or purported a close connection of a Eurabia conspiracy and used the term "dhimmitude", denoting alleged "western subjection to Islam".〔 The term itself is based on a newsletter published in the 1970s by the ''Comité européen de coordination des associations d'amitié avec le monde Arabe'', a Euro-Arab friendship committee.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Worldcat ), 〕〔 (English translation )〕 Bat Ye'Or's ''Eurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis'' was the first print publication in the Eurabia genre,〔 which has since grown to a number of titles,〔〔 including Melanie Phillips' ''Londonistan'', Oriana Fallaci's ''The Force of Reason'', and Bruce Bawer's ''While Europe Slept''. The term is often used by the writers (Fallaci, Steyn) and several web sites, many of them affiliated with the counterjihad movement.〔including Gates of Vienna, Paul Beliën's Brussels Journal, Free Republic, Front Page Magazine, Richard Landes's ''(Eurabia )'' article, Fjordman's ''(The Eurabia Code )'' article and his ''Defeating Eurabia'' compilation.〕 Peder Are Nøstvold Jensen's ''Defeating Eurabia''〔 ((available online ))〕 earned him a high standing among far-right extremists. An important part of the narrative is the idea of a demographic threat, the fear that, at some time in the future, Islam will take over Europe.〔(Muslims 'about to take over Europe' )〕 or as Bernard Lewis put it, "Europe will be Islamic by the end of the century."〔(Will Islam Become the Religion of Europe? )〕〔("Europa wird islamisch" (original interview with Bernhard Lewis in the german newspaper ''"Die Welt"'') )〕 Walter Laqueur's ''The Last Days of Europe'' is quoted often among the Eurabia literature; however, he modified his statements later. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eurabia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
