An Ambivalent European Identity: Muslim Europeans as an example. Putting European Muslims identity in context, it is quite lucid that Muslimsidentity in Europe was subjected to changes. Any change in the dominant discourse about Islam is likely to generate a new structure and framework for shaping the identity. Muslims in Europe are no longer in control of these processes, and the discourse about Islam is imposed upon them. The centuries of confrontation between Muslims and Europe are deeply rooted in the modern European perception of Islam. What the Europeans claim to know about Islam is to a large extent the product of a vision constructed upon centuries.
