“Rethinking Islamism beyond jihadi violence: Fighting ideas leaving the sword aside”

About The Event
Call for Book Chapters
Deadline: August 30, 2020
For several years Islamism has been associated with jihadism and violent extremism both in academia and in contemporary political debates. However, this association can be misleading: Islamism has much deeper roots than jihadi terrorism and it stands as a powerful and complex ideology inspiring thoughts, actions and groups all over the world.
Given that terrorists are only a small and definite portion of Islamists, this volume aims to re-focus research on Islamism beyond jihadism by collecting relevant contributions on Islamist but non-violent organizations.
More precisely, this volume seeks original contributions investigating the following issues:
• The origins of Islamism and the differences with jihadism
• The evolution of Islamism over time and places
• The role played by non-jihadist Islamist organizations in different national contexts and their appeal
