Beginning in the early 1970s, militants revolted against the regimes in power throughout the Muslim world and exacerbated political conflicts everywhere. Their jihad, or "Holy Struggle," aimed to establish a global Islamic state based solely on a strict interpretation of the Koran. Religious ideology proved a cohesive force, gathering followers ranging from students and the young urban poor to middle-class professionals. Jihad is the first extensive, in-depth attempt to follow the history and geography of this disturbing political-religious phenomenon.

Recensioner i media

"Islam's radical politicalization had peaked long before September 11th...[Kepel] argues provocatively in a landmark book. So devastating and unexpected was the September 11th attack on America that many people concluded that Islamic extremism had become a threat of monstrous and mushrooming proportions. That idea is deftly countered in this brilliant and provocative book...Kepel argues that the attack can only be understood in the light of the rise and fall of political Islam...over the past quarter-century. Of all the books on the subject since September 11th, this is one of the most challenging and most illuminating." - The Economist "A welcome respite for anyone who fears the fury associated with militant Islam...A compelling read." - Robin Wright, New York Times Book Review "Jihad is probably the best introduction to Islamism currently available." - Walter Laqueur, Atlantic Monthly
