As Terrorism Evolves

Media, Religion, and Governance

Beschreibung

Terrorist organizations have become media-centric enterprises, while also hijacking a world religion, holding large swaths of physical territory, and governing their own virtual states. Focusing on the linkages between media, religion, and governance, this book provides a sophisticated account of terrorism's ongoing evolution.
