No one in a position of power wants to admit\u003cbr\u003ethat the problem is linked to the arrival of several million migrants—most of\u003cbr\u003ethem young men—from Muslim-majority countries.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003ePrey\u003c\/em\u003e, the\u003cbr\u003ebest-selling author of \u003cem\u003eInfidel\u003c\/em\u003e, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, presents startling\u003cbr\u003estatistics, criminal cases and personal testimony.  Among these facts: In 2014, sexual\u003cbr\u003eviolence in Western Europe surged following a period\u003cbr\u003eof stability. In 2018 Germany, “offences against sexual\u003cbr\u003eself-determination” rose 36 percent from their 2014 rate;\u003cbr\u003enearly two-fifths of the suspects were non-German. In\u003cbr\u003eAustria in 2017, asylum-seekers were suspects in 11 percent\u003cbr\u003eof all reported rapes and sexual harassment cases, despite\u003cbr\u003emaking up less than 1 percent of the total population. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis violence isn’t a figment of alt-right propaganda,\u003cbr\u003eHirsi Ali insists, even if neo-Nazis exaggerate it. It’s a real\u003cbr\u003eproblem that Europe—and the world—cannot continue to\u003cbr\u003eignore. She explains why so many young Muslim men who\u003cbr\u003earrive in Europe engage in sexual harassment and violence,\u003cbr\u003etracing the roots of sexual violence in the Muslim world\u003cbr\u003efrom institutionalized polygamy to the lack of legal and religious protections for women. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA refugee herself, Hirsi Ali is not against immigration.\u003cbr\u003eAs a child in Somalia, she suffered female genital mutilation; as a young girl in Saudi Arabia, she was made to feel\u003cbr\u003eacutely aware of her own vulnerability. Immigration, she\u003cbr\u003eargues, requires integration and assimilation. She wants Europeans to reform their broken system—and for Americans\u003cbr\u003eto learn from European mistakes. If this doesn’t happen,\u003cbr\u003ethe calls to exclude new Muslim migrants from Western\u003cbr\u003ecountries will only grow louder. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeeply researched and featuring fresh and often shocking revelations, \u003cem\u003ePrey \u003c\/em\u003euncovers a sexual assault and harassment crisis in Europe that is turning the clock on women’s\u003cbr\u003erights much further back than the #MeToo movement is\u003cbr\u003eadvancing it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ayaan Hirsi Ali","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46934959947925,"sku":"9780063216655","price":6.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/3175\/9509\/files\/9780063216655.jpg?v=1776889808","url":"https:\/\/harpercollins.com.au\/products\/9780063216655_prey","provider":"HarperCollins AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
