Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In an unsettled Middle East, with al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups actively plotting against America and its allies, and the spillover from religious conflict in Muslim countries spreading instability and violence worldwide, George Weigel’s *Faith, Reason, and the War Against Jihadism* is an acute analysis of one of the most dynamic forces in world politics today – Islamist jihadism. After tracing the complex historical and theological roots of the jihadist movement, Weigel offers a comprehensive strategy for defeating jihadism and supporting those forces within Islam that seek a Muslim accommodation with religious freedom, the separation of religious and political authority in the state, and other key accomplishments of political modernity. Above all, Weigel insists that the West must take seriously the religious origins and rationale of jihadism if it is to meet the challenge posed by men of violence who claim to act in the name of God.
