Simon Staffell and Akil Awan.
- 1 online resource : illustrations (black and white)
Previously issued in print: 2016.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
This timely collection of essays examines how jihadist narratives have changed globally. Area and thematic specialists consider transitions inside the Middle East and North Africa as well as in South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and Europe. As these analyses demonstrate, the success of the ISIS narrative has been as much about resonance with local contexts, as it has been about the appeal of the global idea of a tangible and realized caliphate.
