Que es el terrorismo? Donde, cuando y como surgen las organizaciones terroristas? Quienes han militado en ellas y por que? Cuales son las medidas antiterroristas que deben adoptar los gobiernos democraticos? Que problematica subyace a la cooperacion internacional contra dicho fenomeno? Estamos de hecho ante una nueva era del terrorismo? Este libro, escrito por uno de los mas destacados expertos academicos internacionales en la materia, ofrece de manera rigurosa pero al mismo tiempo accesible los elementos analiticos, argumentos interpretativos y ejemplos empiricos necesarios para responder tanto a esos como a otros interrogantes. Sus paginas, en primer lugar, abordan la caracterizacion del terrorismo como forma singular de violencia utilizada en la contienda por el poder. En segundo lugar, investigan los escenarios sociales, regimenes politicos y contextos culturales donde resulta mas verosimil la aparicion del terrorismo contemporaneo. En tercer lugar, exploran los rasgos sociodemograficos, experiencias de socializacion politica y motivaciones individuales propias de quienes han sido militantes de las diversas organizaciones terroristas que hemos conocido en las sociedades industriales avanzadas desde el final de los anos sesenta. En cuarto lugar, discuten el alcance y las limitaciones de cuantas medidas politicas en sentido estricto, ademas de otras propiamente juridicas y policiales, han implementado los gobiernos democraticos con el objetivo de contener el terrorismo. Finalmente, estudian la transnacionalizacion de dicho fenomeno, que las autoridades de algunos paises incluso han utilizado como instrumento de su politica exterior, atendiendo tambien por ello a la problematica de losarreglos bilaterales o multilaterales alcanzados para prevenir y perseguir esa violenc

‘I hope that this short thought provoking meditation on rightful responses to injustice will trigger a societal discussion for the conscience and future of liberal democracies.’ Marc Sageman, former CIA officer ‘I find Qureshi’s personal tone profound and loud, and it does what all good works of politics and anti-racism should. It makes visible the most intimate ways white power impacts us, destroy us, and has us dream about our futures.’ Yassir Morsi, author of Radical Skin, Moderate Masks ‘Drawing on an extraordinary range of influences that includes Primo Levi, Tupac Shakur, fourteenth century Islamic jurists and the Qu’ran, Qureshi weaves a moving account of his personal political journey through the horrors of the early 21st century into an inspirational call for racial and political justice and critical Islamic scholarship.’ Matthew Carr, author of Blood & Faith: The Purging of Muslim Spain In this new work of political philosophy, Asim Qureshi reflects on injustice he sees in the world around him. Covering issues from torture and extrajudicial killings, to racism and discrimination, A Virtue of Disobedience takes the reader on a journey through the history of oppression, and begins a conversation about how previous acts of resistance and disobedience, through faith and virtue, can be liberating in the range of contemporary issues communities face today.

Colombia has experienced significant political instability and violence over the past century due to a number of factors, including the proliferation of small-arms trafficking. The authors identify the sources and routes used by arms traffickers to acquire, buy, sell, receive, transfer, and ship weapons. They also examine the various groups and individuals who purchase and use these munitions. The authors examine Colombia's political conflict through the lens of small-arms trafficking and conclude with policy implications for the United States.

In modern Egypt, the pace of Islamic resurgence has increased as in other Muslim societies. Throughout the twentieth century, Egyptian women have fought fiercely for political participation and for legal and educational reform to improve their status. To many of them, the adoption of a new form of the veil seemed retrogressive and ominous. This book explores the history of Muslim women and the debates over gender, which have developed since the golden age of Islam. It considers the opinions, goals, and ideals of fifty Egyptian women, veiled and unveiled, and compares their views to the gender ideology of the contemporary Islamists. Women's social backgrounds are examined in the context of the Egyptian state and its social policies.
