Beginning in the early 1970s, militants revolted against the regimes in power across the Muslim world and exacerbated political conflicts internationally. Their jihad - or "Holy Struggle" - aimed to establish a global Islamic state based solely on a strict interpretation of the Qur'an. "Jihad" is a comprehensive attempt to follow the history and spread of this new political-religious phenomenon. Gilles Kepel has travelled throughout the Muslim world gathering documents, interviews and archival material inaccessible to most scholars. 0aIslam 0aIslam and politics 0aIslam and state 0aIslamic fundamentalism 0aJihad403Amazon.comuhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1860646840/chopaconline-20  2ddccBK  c15762d15762  001040708NFICaCIPSbCIPScGENd2013-10-02l0o320.550917671 KEP 2003pCIPS0002363r2013-12-11w2013-12-11yBK
