In this powerful and passionate critique of the 'war on terror' in
Afghanistan and its extensions into Palestine and Iraq, Derek
Gregory traces the long history of British and American
involvements in the Middle East and shows how colonial power
continues to cast long shadows over our own present. This work:
argues that the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon
on September 11 activated a series of political and cultural
responses that were profoundly colonial in nature; presents the
first analysis of the 'war on terror' to connect events in
Afghanistan, Palestine, and Iraq; traces the connections between
geopolitics and the lives of ordinary people; and, is richly
illustrated and packed with empirical detail.
