| Summary, etc. |
From Western Europe to Asia, from the Middle East to the Horn of Africa, moderate societies are finding themselves under growing assault by radical Islamic forces. In some countries, such as Great Britain, Denmark and France, the challenge posed by radical Islam is still limited in scope and embryonic in nature. But in others, including Somalia, Lebanon and Pakistan, it is mature, and poses a mortal danger to the future of the current state. The World Almanac of Islamism is the first comprehensive reference work to detail the current activities of radical Islamist movements worldwide. The contributions, written by subject experts, provide annual updates on the contemporary Islamist threat in all countries and regions where it exists. Each country study includes valuable metrics for gauging the advance or decline of Islamism. In places where Islamists are not in power, these include year-on-year comparisons of the number of terrorist attacks that have taken place, the level of popular support being received by radical religious organizations and political parties, and applicable government responses to these trends, if any. In places where they are in power, metrics encompass relevant changes to domestic human rights practices and social conditions, foreign policy rhetoric and action, and the overall stability of the state. This book makes a major contribution toward properly defining the Islamist threat and paving the way for the implementation of more effective counterterrorism strategies by the United States and its allies. It provides policymakers, the news media, scholars, and students with a more comprehensive understanding of the threat we now confront. |
