Recenzii
"As we all know, and as Gabriele Marranci stresses in the introduction to his intelligent new work, the frame or discourse of terrorism in recent years (especially since 9/11) has shifted from 'crime' to 'war,' calling naturally for a different response … The surprising but convincing position of the book, though, is that both sides in this clash of values make roughly the same argument about the other, which boils down to the profound anthropological question of how to be a human. - Anthropology Review Database - Jack David EllerWars of Terror is a significant contribution to one of the most problematic contemporary concerns. It should be read by anyone who wishes to develop a more nuanced understanding of the issues, emotions and ideas at stake ... For anthropologists, in particular, the book should both inspire us both to apply the discipline’s canon to global issues, and to explore the current limitations of our methods and understandings. - Anthropology of Contemporary Middle East and Central Eurasia"
Descriere
Analyzing the role of rhetoric and ideology in the western ‘war on terror’ and Islamic ‘jihad’ in the aftermath of 9/11, Gabriele Marranci shows that we are not experiencing a ‘clash of civilizations’ but a clash among ‘civilizers’ who believe they have the power to define how to be human.
