The Islamist Challenge and Africa examines Islamist militancy among Africans historically and at present, a topic largely ignored in the United States. It examines Islamist militancy’s longstanding presence in Africa and its diaspora, Islamist militancy’s distinct ideological features among Africans, and ways to minimize its violence.
The Islamist Challenge and Africa explores Islamist militancy in Africa south of the Sahara, perhaps the most dangerous region in the world today. It examines Islamist militancy’s longstanding presence among Africans, its distinct ideological features and ways to minimize if not eliminate its violence. It warns policy makers to abandon marginalizing Africa before it is too late.
