Neoliberalism and Neo-jihadism investigates the political economy of Al Qaeda and Islamic State. Its examination reveals that while these organisations propagandise on the basis of widespread anti-capitalist sentiments, at the same time they exploit and contribute to the same mechanisms of neoliberal, late modern capitalist finance they condemn. -- .

Reviews for Neoliberalism and Neo-Jihadism: Propaganda and Finance in Al Qaeda and Islamic State

'In the vast array of studies on contemporary jihadism, Neoliberalism and neo-jihadism by Imogen Richards stands out for its rigorous theoretical framework, its impressive empirical basis and its unique historical-materialist analysis. With an engaging and insightful analysis of the dialectical relationship between neoliberalism and neo-jihadism, it fills a genuine lacuna in the broader field of jihadism studies. It is highly commended and will be of great interest to anyone interested contemporary jihadism, Islamic State, al Qaeda and Middle East security politics.' Richard Jackson, Professor of Peace Studies, National Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies, University of Otago -- .
