Beskrivning
Using an aesthetic culture and techniques termed as jihadi cool, terrorist groups have been able to recruit members from around the world, so how do we begin to respond?This book analyzes the rhetorical and ethical dynamics of a culture of jihadi cool/chic, and why these rhetorical and aesthetic techniques have been such a powerful recruitment force for particular transnational terrorist groups. The author uses an evidence-based approach, with frameworks derived from law, politics, philosophy, rhetoric, feminist theory, and communication studies, to examine various attempts to construct counter-narratives to the jihadi cool master narrative. The book closes with an examination of how to begin to respond critically and effectively to the lure of jihadi cool.

Recensioner i media

This book analyzes some of the key global narratives that drive the internet recruitment rhetoric and attractiveness—jihadi cool—of some terrorist organizations, and it examines the development of counter-narratives—often employed with very limited success. Drawing on law, politics, philosophy, rhetoric, feminist theory, and communication studies, Caroline Picart presents an original, expansive, and strategic account of major, violent threats to western democratic cultures and explains how to begin to respond critically, effectively, and democratically to these dangers. The topic could not be more timely or more important.
