Reviews

Donatella Di Cesare has written a deeply learned, passionate, and revelatory analysis of what is, in effect, a new form of human conflict. War is no longer territorial but global, fueled by a lack of concern for death. Its face is terrorism but, as she shows, its origins are latent in the political heritage of the West. This is a book that will change the way you think about our world. Tracy B. Strong, University of Southampton Donatella Di Cesare presents here a remarkable global cultural view of terrorism, which should appeal to many readers beyond the usual confines of terrorism studies, not least for its pungent account of the 'thanatopolitics' of jihadism. Charles Townshend, Keele University
