Recenzje

"This book is an original analysis of media practices and representations of the past as they play out on the television station al-Mayadeen. By coining the term The New Regressive Left, Crone offers a new framework for exploring the ideological space between authoritarian politics and revolutionary nostalgia in which part of the contemporary Left in the Middle East operates."-Sune Haugbolle, Professor of Global Studies, Roskilde University
