The Taliban's Virtual Emirate

Klappentext

Applying cutting-edge psychiatric theories to an analysis of online Taliban literature in four languages, Aggarwal depicts the organization's appeal and worldview. Aggarwal focuses on the Taliban's creation of culture, showing how the Taliban categorizes all Muslims as members and all non-Muslims as outsiders; how they convince Muslims of the need for violence; and how they apply the insider/outside dichotomy to foreign policy. By isolating these themes, Aggarwal helps us craft better counter-messaging strategies.
