Christian Joppke and John Torpey show how four liberal democracies--France, Germany, Canada, and the U.S.--have responded to the challenge of integrating Muslim populations. Demonstrating the centrality of the legal system to this process, they argue that institutional barriers to integration are no greater on one side of the Atlantic than the other.
