Acknowledgments

This issue is the outcome of a conference held on 16 and 17 June 2011 at the Prato centre of Monash University, Italy: ‘Globalization, Illiberalism and Islam: Perspectives from Europe and Australia’. The conference was supported by the Monash European and EU Centre, a joint undertaking by the European Commission of the European Union (EU) and Monash University. The participation of Robert Gould was funded from the grant from the European Commission to the Centre for European Studies of Carleton University, Ottawa. As co-editors we wish to thank Derya Dilara for her valuable help in organizing the conference and Virginie Andre for all the practical support given during the preparation of this journal issue. We also wish to acknowledge the intellectual support of Greg Barton, Acting Director, Centre for Islam and the Modern World, Monash University. Finally, we thank the participants to the conference and all Australian, European and American academics who found the time to act as anonymous referees. Their feedback was most valuable.
