"The Crisis of Islam ranges widely through thirteen centuries of history, but in particular it charts the key events of the twentieth century leading up to the violent confrontations of today: the creation of the state of Israel, the Cold War, the Iranian Revolution, the Soviet defeat in Afghanistan, the Gulf War, and the September 11 attacks on the United States." "While hostility toward the West has a long and varied history in the lands of Islam, its current concentration on America is new. So too is the cult of the suicide bomber. Brilliantly disentangling the crosscurrents of Middle Eastern history from the rhetoric of its manipulators, Bernard Lewis helps us understand the reasons for the increasingly dogmatic rejection of modernity by many in the Muslim world in favor of a return to a sacred past. Based on his George Polk Award-winning article for The New Yorker, The Crisis of Islam is essential reading for anyone who wants to know what Usama bin Ladin represents and why his murderous message resonates so widely in the Islamic world."--Jacket.

Het is een gemeenplaats om te stellen dat het islamitisch fundamentalisme één van de grootste bedreigingen voor het Westen is. De vraag is uiteraard of zulke stelling op feiten is gebaseerd. Deze studie besteedt speciaal aandacht aan de beperkingen van het islamitisch fundamentalisme als alternatief voor de bestaande politieke en maatschappelijke orde in het Midden-Oosten, zowel op theoretisch-ideologisch vlak als in de praktijk. De auteur verdedigt de stelling dat het fundamentalisme in feite over zijn hoogtepunt heen is, mede omdat de staten een anti-fundamentalistische strategie ontwikkelen.

Some Islamic scholars hold that Salafism is an innovative and rationalist effort at Islamic reform that emerged in the late nineteenth century but gradually disappeared in the mid twentieth. Others argue Salafism is an anti-innovative and antirationalist movement of Islamic purism that dates back to the medieval period yet persists today. Though they contradict each other, both narratives are considered authoritative, making it hard for outsiders to grasp the history of the ideology and its core beliefs. Introducing a third, empirically based genealogy, The Making of Salafism understands the concept as a recent phenomenon projected back onto the past, and it sees its purist evolution as a direct result of decolonization. Henri Lauzière builds his history on the transnational networks of Taqi al-Din al-Hilali (1894-1987), a Moroccan Salafi who, with his associates, participated in the development of Salafism as both a term and a movement. Traveling from Rabat to Mecca, from Calcutta to Berlin, al-Hilali interacted with high-profile Salafi scholars and activists who eventually abandoned Islamic modernism in favor of a more purist approach to Islam. Today, Salafis tend to claim a monopoly on religious truth and freely confront other Muslims on theological and legal issues. Lauzière's pathbreaking history recognizes the social forces behind this purist turn, uncovering the popular origins of what has become a global phenomenon.

Een geschiedenis van de Serviërs, wat meer is dan een geschiedenis van Servië zoals we het vandaag kennen. Het boek beschrijft de geschiedenis van de Serviërs sinds de eerste Slavische migraties naar de Balkan en het middeleeuwse Servische koninkrijk. Uiteraard komt ook de Turkse periode en de langzame emancipatie van de Serviërs in een onafhankelijk koninkrijk aan bod. Maar zeer veel aandacht gaat ook naar het ontstaan van Joegoslavië na wereldoorlog I, de bloedige ervaring tijdens de tweede wereldoorlog en het uiteenspatten van datzelfde Joegoslavië in de jaren negentig. Zoals de auteur zelf in zijn inleiding zegt is het hierbij de bedoeling uit te leggen hoe de Servische identiteit groeide tot wat ze nu is, hoe deze identeit levendig werd gehouden doorheen de lange Ottomaanse bezetting, hoe de diverse migratiestromen en historische gebeurtenissen maken dat er niet alleen in Servië Serviërs leven of tot voor kort leefden. Het licht ook de rol toe die het Servische nationalisme na de val van het communisme speelde.

Since September 11, Al Qaeda has been portrayed as an Islamist front united in armed struggle, or jihad, against the Christian West. However, as the historian and commentator Fawaz A. Gerges argues, the reality is rather different. In fact, Al Qaeda represents a minority within the jihadist movement, and its strategies have been criticized and opposed by religious nationalists among the jihadis, who prefer to concentrate on changing the Muslim world rather than taking the fight global. Based on primary field research, the author unravels the story of the jihadist movement and explores its philosophies, its structure, the rifts and tensions that split its ranks, and why some members, like Osama bin Laden and his deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri, favored international over local strategies in taking the war to the West. Gerges asks where the jihadist movement is going, and whether it can be transformed into a non-violent, socio-political force.
