Abstract

«Je plaisante, je plaisante, mais la situation est affreusement désespérée. L’affaire était louche dès le début pourtant, l’ennemi n’est pas tombé du ciel, il sortait bien de quelque trou, verdammt, un enfant l’aurait compris. Quand avons-nous cessé d’être intelligents ou simplement attentifs ?» Ute Von Ebert, dernière héritière d’un puissant empire industriel, habite à Erlingen, fief cossu de la haute bourgeoisie allemande. Sa fille Hannah, vingt-six ans, vit à Londres. Dans des lettres au ton très libre et souvent sarcastique, Ute lui raconte la vie dans Erlingen assiégée par un ennemi dont on ignore à peu près tout et qu’elle appelle «les Serviteurs», car ils ont décidé de faire de la soumission à leur dieu la loi unique de l’humanité. La population attend fiévreusement un train qui doit l’évacuer. Mais le train du salut n’arrive pas. Et si cette histoire était le fruit d’un esprit fantasque et inquiet, qui observe les ravages de la propagation d’une foi sectaire dans les démocraties fatiguées ? Comme dans 2084, Boualem Sansal décrit la mainmise de l’extrémisme religieux sur les zones fragiles de nos sociétés, favorisée par la lâcheté ou l’aveuglement des dirigeants

Abstract

L'islamologue montre comment, de manière constante à travers l'histoire, la question du lien entre islam et islamisme prend sa source au plus profond du Coran, dans une tension permanente entre visée spirituelle et ambition d'emprise sur le monde. L'enjeu est alors de savoir si l'islam est en mesure de se réformer de manière à concilier son dogme avec les idéaux du temps présent.

Abstract

This book presents an overview of the processes involved in radicalization and terrorism, and introduces a systematic framework which captures the most crucial individual and social factors involved in determining these processes. The authors begin by considering the role played by prejudice, economic deprivation, and discrimination, and the cognitive responses and emotions they can trigger. These responses tend to emphasize the importance of group membership, and promote intergroup differentiation and polarization, a process which is often accompanied by more pronounced and more extreme religious and ideological beliefs. The book also explores the role of cultural values and social climate in processes of radicalization, as well as personality and demographic factors like age and marital status. As for violent terrorist action itself, this final most radical stage is elicited by a number of group factors such as groupthink, isolation, and leadership. Certain cognitive mechanisms - for example, dehumanizing the target and deflecting responsibility - can also provide excuses for violence. The book examines why some groups turn to violence and others don't, and it addresses the processes of disengagement, deradicalization programs, and other methods used to inhibit the spread of radicalization and terrorism.

Abstract

Throughout history, factors of radicalization have involved social and economic conditions and issues of identity. Patterns of Islamist radicalization in Europe reflect the historical experience of European Muslim communities, particularly their links to their home countries, the prevalence of militant groups there, and the extent to which factors of radicalization in Muslim countries transfer to European Muslim diasporas. Eurojihad examines the sources of radicalization in Muslim communities in Europe and the responses of European governments and societies. In an effort to understand the scope and dynamics of Islamist extremism and terrorism in Europe, this book takes into account recent developments, in particular the emergence of Syria as a major destination of European jihadists. Angel Rabasa and Cheryl Benard describe the history, methods and evolution of jihadist networks in Europe with particular nuance, providing a useful primer for the layperson and a sophisticated analysis for the expert.

Abstract

Christian fundamentalists. Hindu nationalists. Islamic jihadists. Buddhist militants. Jewish extremists. Members of these and other religious groups have committed horrific acts of terrorist violence in recent decades. How is this possible? How do individuals use their religious beliefs to justify such actions? How do they manipulate the language and symbols of their faith to motivate others to commit violence in the name of the divine? Phil Gurski addresses these essential questions as he explores violent extremism across a broad range of the world's major religions.
