The Arab Maghreb-the long stretch of North Africa that expands from
Libya to Mauritania-is a vitally important region that impacts the
security and politics of Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, and the
broader Middle East. As Middle East scholars Frederic Wehrey and
Anouar Boukhars show in Salafism in the Maghreb, it is also home to
the conservative, literalist interpretation of Islam known as
Salafism, which has emerged as a major social and political force.
Through extensive interviews and fieldwork, Wehrey and Boukhars
examine the many roles and manifestations of Salafism in the
Maghreb, looking at the relationship between Salafism and the
Maghreb's ruling regimes, as well as competing Islamist currents,
increasingly youthful populations, and communal groups like tribes
and ethno-linguistic minorities. They pay particular attention to
how seemingly immutable Salafi ideology is often shaped by local
contexts and opportunities. Informed by rigorous research, deep
empathy, and unparalleled access to Salafi adherents, clerics,
politicians, and militants, Salafism in the Maghreb offers a
definitive account of this important Islamist current.
