Inhaltsangabe
NEW STATESMAN BOOK OF THE YEAR 2017
A radical rethinking of what ISIS is and what it really wants
From Graeme Wood, author of the explosive Atlantic cover story "What ISIS Really Wants," comes the definitive book on the history, psychology, character, and aims of the Islamic State. Based on Wood's unprecedented access to supporters, recruiters, and high-ranking members of the most infamous jihadist group in the world, The Way of the Strangers is a riveting, fast-paced deep dive into the apocalyptic dogma that informs the group's worldview, from the ideas that motivate it, to the "fatwa factory" that produces its laws, to its very specific plans for the future. By accepting that ISIS truly believes the end is nigh, we can understand its strategy-and predict what it will do next.

Von der hinteren Coverseite
Based on his extensive time reporting throughout the region, and his unprecedented access to ISIS recruiters and supporters, Wood explores how the Islamic State's apocalyptic worldview informs their global media strategy, solidifies their authority, and dictates their geographically precise battle-plan. By accepting that ISIS is, at heart, an apocalyptic religious movement that truly believes the end is nigh, we can understand their strategy -- and predict what they will do next.

The Way of the Strangers : Encounters with the Islamic State
Anbieter: BookAddiction (IOBA, IBooknet), Canterbury, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. 318pp. Indexed. Black cloth boards (strong, sharp, bright) with gilt titles to spine. Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. In its original, unclipped dust jacket (very softly bumped at edges). A quest to understand the Islamic State, a round the world journey to the end of the night. The men encounters are misfits, some even losers, but their millenarian Islamist ideology makes them players in the world of global politics. Several other booksellers give 2016 as the first edition of this volume - this is incorrect; the text was copyrighted in 2016 but the book not published until 2017.
