The Dig: A Theory of ISIS with Mohammad-Mahmoud Ould Mohamedou
Summary
<p>Mohammad-Mahmoud Ould Mohamedou explains: it's not just that the War on Terror has warped American and European politics and society; it's that the War on Terror and Islamic terrorist groups like ISIS have become mutually-critical facets of a larger, more total global geo-political order. In other words, the terrorists and the national security states waging war against them are dependent upon one another, and together have created a more violent, divided and alienated world.</p><p>Thanks to University of California Press.
