The article focuses on the media representation of marginalized Muslim youth in Australia. Topics discussed include the impact of social marginalization and discrimination on the radicalization of Muslim youth, the conflicts between multiculturalism and racism and Islamophobia in Australian culture, and development of ethnic and national identities during adolescence. The impacts of media coverage of Islamic terrorism and violence in the Middle East on Australian Muslim young people is also noted.
