SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This dissertation is based on two multiple case studies through which I examined the intersection of identity, religion, citizenship and agency. The first chapter of the dissertation explains the theoretical framework and why I rely on postcolonial theory and Foucault's theory of power/knowledge in order to interrogate the cultivation of Muslim students' religious and civic identities. The same chapter includes the methodological part of my dissertation.
