In the decade after 9/11, al-Qaeda gradually expanded its presence in the Muslim world through the creation of franchise affiliates. The author argues that the organization's dramatically weakened position in the wake of 9/11 was a central factor driving this new organizational strategy. But branching out was actually a sign of weakness. It not only failed to arrest al-Qaeda's decline, but accelerated it by fostering the birth of rival organizations like the Islamic State. Although the introduction of new branches helped al-Qaeda create a frightening image beyond its actual capabilities, ultimately the strategy neither increased al-Qaeda's capacity nor advanced its political objectives. The author also explores the organization's expansion choices in particular countries, and closes with an assessment of al-Qaeda's future in light of the ongoing turmoil in the Middle East, the ascendance of ISIS, and U.S. foreign policy.

Al-Qaida et la plupart des groupes alliés auraient probablement déjà disparu sans l'élaboration d'une stratégie de communication redoutable dont la production audiovisuelle est devenue l'instrument principal. L'analyse systématique de ce phénomène de propagande, probablement le plus important depuis le début du XXIe siècle, n'avait encore jamais été effectuée. Pourtant, son corpus visuel nous offre un aperçu extraordinaire de l'histoire du jihadisme global. Après avoir analysé les principaux producteurs de la propagande jihadiste et présenté son langage visuel, Abdelasiem El Difraoui expose l'évolution du Grand Récit jihadiste et de sa production audiovisuelle des trois dernières décennies. Au-delà de la propagande, cette production détourne la mythologie de l'islam pour en créer une nouvelle au sein de laquelle le culte du martyre joue un rôle central ; est alors créée une nouvelle cosmologie qui élève Ben Laden au rang de prophète. De cette analyse il ressort que, en dépit de leur échec à mobiliser les masses musulmanes, Al-Qaida et sa nébuleuse sont parvenues à créer des images et des symboles reconnus aujourd'hui par de nombreux croyants et qui pourraient continuer à inspirer les générations à venir.
