Abstract

Litanie d'attaques terroristes en Europe, défaites militaires à répétition en Syrie et en Irak, parcours de djihadistes décortiqués sans fin par la police et les journaux : l'Organisation de l'Etat islamique ne quitte jamais longtemps les feux de la rampe, sans qu'on connaisse pourtant la véritable nature du califat que Daech prétendait imposer au monde entier. La libération de Mossoul permet enfin de lever le voile sur la réalité du projet politique et social de l'Etat islamique, unique par son ampleur et ses objectifs.Les témoignages inédits recueillis par Hélène Sallon auprès des habitants de Mossoul dessinent une réalité terrible dont ne nous sont parvenus que très peu de récits et quasiment aucune image. Cet ouvrage exceptionnel raconte ce qu'a tenté d'imposer l'Etat islamique à toute la société, suivant le "nouvel ordre social djihadiste", qui apprend aux écoliers à compter en multipliant les tonnes d'explosifs, ou punit les femmes trop découvertes de morsures administrées par les brigades féminines armées de pinces terminées par des dents de fer.Dans ce récit qui se tient autant à distance des témoignages à sensation de djihadistes ou de leurs victimes que des analyses froides et désincarnées des chercheurs, Hélène Sallon donne corps et matière à ce califat, devenu l'objet de toutes les inquiétudes et de tous les fantasmes.

Abstract

As the United States continues to draw down its forces and prepares to end its military involvement in Iraq, the implications for Iraq's at-risk populations must be considered. Oliker, Grant, and Kaye assess the risks and implications of drawdown and withdrawal for some of the Iraqis in greatest danger, both within Iraq and in neighboring states. The authors conclude with recommendations on how the United States can mitigate identified problems.

Abstract

"The book addresses the complex events and unexpected outcomes of military intervention by the United States and its allies in Iraq in 2003. Considering the long-term outcomes of military intervention, this volume examines economic collapse, societal disorder and increased regional conflict in Iraq. The work assesses the means by which American strategists imposed a new political order, generalising corruption, sectarian preference and ethnic cleansing, and stimulating mass population movements in and from Iraq. Mobilising a multi-disciplinary perspective, the book explores the rise and fall of Iraq's confessional leaders, the emergence of a popular movement for reform and the demands of young radicals focused upon revolutionary change. The product of years of intensive research by Iraqis and international scholars, Iraq since the Invasion considers how an initiative designed to produce "regime change" favourable to the United States and its allies brought unprecedented influence for Iran - both in Iraq and the wider Gulf region. It inspects events in Kurdistan and the impacts of change on relations between Iraq and its neighbours. The book includes a wealth of detail on political, social and cultural change, and the experiences of Iraqis during long years of upheaval that is great value to researchers and students interested in international relations, development studies and Middle East politics"--
