Table of ContentsReviewsDonatella 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.
