Abstract

"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.

Abstract

"En apprenant la mort de Ben Laden, il était tentant de penser qu'on avait ainsi mis un terme au terrorisme d'Al Qaeda et dispersé le Djihad dans l'océan. C'est fort mal connaître cette nébuleuse de la terreur et ses adeptes qui entendent bien continuer le combat. Aujourd'hui, qu'est-ce que le djihadisme ? Quels sont les différents groupes qui le composent ? Comment agissent-ils ? Qui en sont les chefs ? D'où viennent-ils ? D'où et comment agissent-ils ? Comment se financent-ils ? Et surtout comment les combattons-nous et comment peuvent-ils être vaincus? C'est à toutes ces questions que Julien Chauvierre entend répondre. Il nous présente dans son livre un des panoramas les plus complets jamais établis jusqu'à aujourd'hui de cet international de la terreur, des mouvements qui la composent et des menaces que nous courrons. l'auteur fait également le point sur la lutte anti-terroriste, sur la véritable traque que livrent la CIA et les autres services secrets à cet ennemi invisible. Ce document accessible, précis et captivant se veut une référence pour tous ceux qui cherchent à comprendre la guerre dans laquelle nous sommes entrés depuis les attentats du 11 septembre et que la mort de Ben Laden est loin d'avoir fait disparaître." --

Abstract

This book deals with certain "hot-button" contemporary issues in Islam that are often the focus of public scrutiny, including the Sharia, jihad, the caliphate, women's status, and interfaith relations. Notably, it places the discussion of these topics within a longer historical framework in order to reveal their multiple interpretations and contested applications over time. Most public and some academic discourses however present the Islamic tradition as unchanging and therefore unable to respond to the modern world. Such an ahistorical approach fosters the belief that Muslim and Western societies are destined to clash with one another. In contrast, this book allows the reader to see the diversity and transformations within Islamic thought over time. Focusing on this internal diversity permits us to appreciate the scriptural and intellectual resources available within the Islamic tradition for responding to the challenges of modernity, even as it interrogates and shapes modernity itself.
