Five years after September 11, a sense of malaise and
uncertainty surrounds the so-called war on terror. This volume
offers a bold, fresh rethinking of the central challenge in that
conflict: the rise of radical Islamism. Mazarr argues that this
movement represents the latest in a series of anti-modern political
and philosophical rebellions: in its causes, the shape of its
ideology, and its social consequences, the movement shares much in
common with German fascism, Russian revolutionary doctrines, and
Japanese imperialist nationalism. The book builds a model of how
anti-modern movements arise and suggests broader truths about the
changing character of world politics and the psychological basis of
national security in a globalized world. It concludes with a
critique of the war on terror as currently pursued and a
wide-ranging proposal for a strikingly different approach to the
challenge of this latest challenge to modernity.
