Daesh Ideology and Women’s Rights in the Maghreb
Edinburgh University Press (Verlag)
9781399536851 (ISBN)
Based on extensive fieldwork data, Daesh Ideology and Women’s Rights in the Maghreb argues that Daesh’s radicalized gender regime does not only target Western modernity; it also targets a homegrown modernity in the Maghreb. While the former is historically built on the exclusion of religion, the latter is built on the reform of Islamic law. Women’s legal rights in the Maghreb constitute a solid entry point to examine and explain the rise of Daesh ideology in the Maghreb. While the book situates various informants within a larger political history, it prioritises conceptual ideology and aims to understand the depth and effect of this ideology.
