This book sheds light on the emergence, roots and gradual change of
jihadism and exposes its detrimental impact on human lives. The
author collected insightful interviews with ISIS fighters and also
with women who joined ISIS. The book analyzes root causes and
motivations of people based on the firsthand information and
proposes the non-enigma cycles radicalization theory, and argues
that two main cycles- grievances and resentment, and the radical
ideology are the most significant. The book addresses the current
situation with 70,000 women and children, who were family members
of ISIS fighters, trapped in the desert following the defeat of the
terrorist group in Syria and Iraq. The work also analyzes
incentives of those who joined ISIS, nature of the jihadist
ideology, emergence of a family jihad, roles of women and children
within a so-called caliphate, and state policies to deal with
captured ISIS fighters and their family members. The author gives
detailed information on post-ISIS lives of women and children, who
were family members of ISIS fighters who currently held in the
desert in Northeast Syria. Detailed and vivid depiction of the
ongoing humanitarian crisis in these camps presents the readers a
clear understanding of the extent, intensity, and importance of the
issue at hand and is what makes this book such a compelling and
eye-catching one. The book also gives compelling accounts of state
policies toward ISIS fighters that being discussed by international
community such as establishing ad hoc tribunal, stripping
citizenship, transferring to Iraqi prisons etc. It also gives
detailed insights into rehabilitation and reintegration programs in
several countries that repatriated their citizens from Syria and
Iraq. The author`s research is unique due to her direct access to
repatriated foreign fighters in several countries, which brought
back their citizens from Iraq and Syria. "We will depart to Jihad
if the God calls us," such are the imprints that are left on the
minds of young children born and raised in ISIS-controlled
territories. The book contains many human stories which makes the
book interesting not only to scholars and policy makers but to
general audience too.
