More than a fear: Islamophobia and the power of misinformation

The differences between religions, cultures, and ideas often give rise to mutual denial and intolerance within societies. As a result of such tendencies, concepts like ethnocentrism—the belief in the superiority of one’s own culture while denigrating others; racism—the belief in the superiority of one race over others; and xenophobia—the fear or hatred of foreigners and people from different cultures, have emerged. Among these, some of the most dangerous and widespread are so-called phobias, which refer to religious intolerance. In particular, the concept of Islamophobia has become increasingly prominent as a form of intolerance toward Islam, a religion practiced by more than 2 billion people globally.
