Radical Islam and International

Security

Radical Islam poses a political challenge in the modern world which is like that

of no other radical religious movement. Ideologically, it is perceived by Western

policy makers as threatening the liberal-democratic ideology by which most

states in the West abide and which most other states rhetorically espouse.

This book serves as a welcome addition to the intellectual and policy debate

on the nature of the radical Islam phenomenon and how to respond to it. The

collection is divided into three parts, analyzing the phenomenon of radical

Islam, the challenges it poses to current international security and the strategic

responses available. The ﬁrst part seeks to understand the Islamic challenge in

broad comparative and historical terms, while the second part deals with speciﬁc

regional case studies, which seek to identify patterns of uniformity and variation

in radical Islam across a wide swath of terrain. The third part is policy-oriented,

suggesting possible responses to the Islamic challenge. The contributors include

distinguished researchers from Europe, North America and the Middle East.

This book will be of much interest to students of Islamism, political violence,

international security and Middle Eastern politics.
