ISIS: The March to Dystopia - Hard Cover
How should we understand ISIS today? The most comprehensive study of ISIS to date, this book benefits from Arabic sources previously unavailable to an English-speaking audience.
Renowned scholar and political philosopher, Azmi Bishara, stresses the need to place ISIS in its historical, social, and political context – shifting the focus from Salafi ideology – to understand its rise and expansion.
This includes a discussion of how regional wars, the occupation of Iraq, sectarian politics, the outbreak of civil war in Iraq and Syria, and the decline of the central state contributed to both ISIS’s formation and the unprecedented merger of Jihadism and Salafism. The book counters a wide misconception in the West that ISIS’s control of Syria and Iraq can be attributed to a Sunni environment, separating the rise of the organization from its exploitation of religious texts.
