Representing Jihad: The Appearing and Disappearing Radical
ISBN: 9781780322636 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The jihad has been at the centre of the West's securitization discourse for more than a decade. Theorists constantly use the jihadist as a discursive tool to further their neoliberal, military and market agendas, perpetuating massive gaps of understanding between 'the West', Muslims and jihadists themselves. They are helped by Muslim interlocutors, who all too often play the role of 'good' Muslims explaining the motifs of the 'bad' Muslims.
This timely book argues that Muslim theory and fiction has been significantly commodified to cater to the needs of western ideology. It skillfully...
