This edited volume discusses critically discursive claims about the
theological foundations connecting Islam to certain manifestations
of violent extremism. Such claims and associated debates become
even more polarizing when images of violent acts of terrorism
performed in the name of Islam circulate in the global media. The
authors argue that the visibility of such mediated violent
extremism, in particular since the emergence of ISIS, has created a
major political and security challenge not only to the world but
also to the global Muslim community. This is particularly true in
relation to the way Islam is being understood and characterized in
the modern world. Existing studies on radicalization generally deal
with causes and strategies to address violent extremism. The book
will appeal to scholars, researchers and students in political
science, Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies.
