Islamist Terrorism and Militancy in Indonesia - The Power of the Manichean Mindset (Hardcover, 2015 ed.)

Drawing upon insights from the natural and social sciences, this
book puts forth a provocative new argument that the violent
Islamist threat in Indonesia today derives its stubborn resilience
from being in essence a complex, adaptive and self-organizing
system - or what some specialists might even call a super-organism.
The book challenges the popular assumption that ideology is the
root cause that explains why Indonesian Islamists radicalize into
violent extremism. In addition it addresses why despite years of
intense security force pressure, seemingly disparate militant cells
keep 'popping up' like the proverbial hydra - and in the apparent
absence of a centralized coordinating body, nevertheless appear to
display an organic interconnectivity with one another. Going beyond
standard ideological mantras the book argues that fresh
inter-disciplinary thinking is needed to cope with the constantly
mutating violent Islamist challenge in Indonesia, and puts forth a
comprehensive strategy for doing so. It will be of interest to
academics and students of terrorism, religion and violence in the
Southeast Asian region.
