Download Now The Terrorist In Search Of Humanity: Militant Islam And Global Politics Originated By Faisal Devji Issued As Paperback

Faisal Devji argues that new forms of militancy, such as the actions of alQaeda, are informed by the same desire for agency and equality that animates other humanitarian interventions, such as environmentalism and pacifism.
To the militant, victimized Muslims are more than just symbols of ethnic and religious persecutionthey represent humanity's centurieslong struggle for legitimacy and agency, Acts of terror, therefore, are fueled by the militant's desire to become a historical actor on the global stage, Though they have yet to build concrete political institutions, militant movements have formed a kind of global society, and as Devji makes clear, this society pursues the same humanitarian objectives that drive more benevolent groups.
