Militant Salafism is one of the most significant movements in
politics today. Unfortunately its significance has not been matched
by understanding. To begin to address this knowledge deficit this
book argues that, rather than the largely unhelpful pursuit of
individual 'root causes' offered in much of the literature, we
would be better served by looking at the factors that have enabled
and facilitated a particular political imaginary. That political
imaginary is one that allows individuals to conceive of themselves
as integral members of a global battle waged between the forces of
Islam and the West, something that lies at the heart of militant
Salafism. Frazer Egerton shows how the ubiquity of modern media and
the prevalence of movement have allowed for a transformation of
existing beliefs into an ideology supportive of militant Salafism
against the West amongst Western Muslims.
