Structured around key elements at the regional, political,
institutional, and personal levels of analysis, this is a complete
and forward-leaning view of Hamas that provides a deep and detailed
examination of the history, ideology, political prospects, and
regional opportunities of an often poorly understood organization
that is redefining 21st-century terrorism. The Palestinian
resistance movement Hamas has long been an influential player in
the tumultuous Middle East, but as the region's instability grows,
so does the importance and potential influence of this
organization. The fact that the Hamas of today defies most of the
traditional categorizations of both terrorist organizations and
political parties makes the group an ideal study on how states in
the Middle East are likely to continue to change. This book offers
a clear picture of how Hamas fits into a dramatically evolving
region, enabling readers to see how Hamas itself has evolved
ideologically, militarily, and politically as well as how it will
continue to shape and be shaped by the broader Middle East region.
Author Jennifer Jefferis, PhD, provides the first comprehensive
consideration of Hamas in the context of the post-Arab Spring
climate, the rise of ISIS, and the consequential emerging politics
of the region, presenting information that is highly detailed yet
written to be accessible to all audiences whether or not they have
previous knowledge of the organization. The book provides coverage
of Hamas's current relationship with Israel and its impact on the
Palestinian territories while focusing on the significance of the
organization's role in the broader region-particularly critical in
light of the recent political uprisings in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya,
and Syria. Provides a detailed and contemporary look at an
influential organization that has enormous potential to shape the
role that radicalized Islam will play in the Middle East over the
next decade Enables a deeper understanding of how Hamas is
poised-in light of its ideological, political, and military
objectives-to influence the development of the Middle East region
in the coming years Offers insightful new analysis about Hamas'
approach to violence and political engagement that identifies what
their methodologies can tell us about violent non-state actors,
political engagement, and regional alliances of the future, and
predicts whether policymakers' and strategists' future efforts to
engage (or not engage) with radical political parties will likely
be effective
