This book offers a novel explanation of jihadist mobilization in this critical region and around the world, treating jihadist organizations as internally diverse political coalitions. These coalitions, the author argues, routinely negotiate and compromise with political forces around them, even as blocs within the coalitions negotiate, argue, and even fight with one another. Rather than treating jihadists as single-minded fanatics, the volume discusses them as nuanced political actors - who are, moreover, sometimes forced to accommodate the interests of sophisticated political actors in the societies they enter. The volume offers insight into key recent events in Mali, Libya, and elsewhere in the region, examining the northern Malian uprising of 2012 and its aftermath, the emergence and collapse of Islamic State territories in Libya, and the deterioration of security and governance in central Mali and northern Burkina Faso. Based on fieldwork in the region, jihadist primary source documents, and a detailed examination of historical and political context, the volume sheds new light on a widely misunderstood part of Africa"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Islam and politics $z Africa, North. 650 0 $a Islam and politics $z Sahel. 650 0 $a Islamic fundamentalism $z Africa, North. 650 0 $a Islamic fundamentalism $z Sahel. 650 0 $a Terrorist organizations $z Africa, North. 650 0 $a Terrorist organizations $z Sahel. 650 0 $a Jihad. 650 6 $a Integrisme islamique $z Afrique du Nord. 650 6 $a Integrisme islamique $z Sahel. 650 6 $a Organisations terroristes $z Afrique du Nord. 650 6 $a Organisations terroristes $z Sahel. 650 6 $a Jihad. 650 7 $a Islam and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979879 650 7 $a Islamic fundamentalism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979941 650 7 $a Jihad. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00983599 650 7 $a Terrorist organizations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01941188 651 7 $a Africa $z Sahel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01242089 651 7 $a North Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239515 650 7 $a Islam and politics $z Africa, North. $2 nli 650 7 $a Islam and politics $z Sahel. $2 nli 650 7 $a Islamic fundamentalism $z Africa, North. $2 nli 650 7 $a Islamic fundamentalism $z Sahel. $2 nli 650 7 $a Terrorist organizations $z Africa, North. $2 nli 650 7 $a Terrorist organizations $z Sahel. $2 nli 650 7 $a Jihad. $2 nli 776 08 $i Online version: $a Thurston, Alex, 1983- $t Jihadists of North Africa and the Sahel $d Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2020. $z 9781108771160 $w (DLC) 2020002778 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117021507.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DE6091B4EE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
