Agents of Violence: Non-Governmental Armed Forces in Southwest Asia, North Africa and beyond (Religion and Transformation in Contemporary European Society) - Hardcover
Inhaltsangabe
The violent conflicts of recent decades in Southwest Asia, North Africa and adjacent regions are often read in terms of the conventional parameters of an international order of sovereign nation states. However, in recent years, non-governmental armed forces have emerged to play an increasingly significant role in the political, social and military fields of the region. These forces are usually analyzed as isolated actors, operating in their respective local or regional spheres, without attention to wider structural commonalities. The aim of this volume is to examine these groups not only as military actors, but also as forces of social significance, indicative of substantial historical shifts relating to notions of sovereignty, beyond the usual prioritization of the state. Comparing the nature, operation and discourses of such forces allows for new understandings of their social impact, beyond common reductionist approaches of securitized worldviews and essentializing lines of inquiry centered on religion.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xxviii + 316 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Boards show gentle indentations along the edges. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This analysis examines the evolving phenomenon of non-state armed groups and their profound impact on global and regional security. The work challenges the traditional state-centric view of warfare by focusing on a diverse array of actors - from jihadi organizations and local militias to private military companies - that now operate in the contested spaces of Southwest Asia, North Africa, and the Sahel. It investigates the ideologies, motivations, and operational methods of these groups, exploring how they exploit state fragility, harness new technologies, and embed themselves in transnational networks. Crucially, the study situates this analysis within a European context, examining the direct and indirect consequences for European security, including the challenges of radicalization, foreign fighters, and the destabilization of its southern neighborhood. -- Contents: 1.
