Sobre IBD

In this up-to-the-moment and politically relevant work, James Dingley dissects the role of social relations, culture and religion in impelling men and women to behave violently in defence of their own known socio-cultural context when challenged by external forces. It is a decisive contribution to our understanding of the political and social relevance of terrorism as we know and experience it today.
