Rejecting theories of economic deprivation and psychological
alienation, Mohammed Hafez offers a provocative analysis of
the factors that contribute to protracted violence in the
Muslim world today. Hafez combines a sophisticated theoretical approach and
detailed case studies to show that the primary source of
Islamist insurgencies lies in the repressive political
environments within which the vast majority of Muslims find
themselves. Highlighting when and how institutional
exclusion and indiscriminate repression contribute to
large-scale rebellion, he provides a crucial dimension to
our understanding of Islamic politics.
