Opis

Explores the disputed relationship between Islam and suicide attacks. It argues that Islam as a generic category is not an explanatory factor in suicide attacks. Rather, we need to study how organisations and individuals in their particular contexts draw tools from their cultural repertoire to shape, justify and give meaning to the bloodshed.
