We’re excited to announce that our Non-Resident Fellow Marta Furlan’s upcoming book, “Inside Salafi-Jihadist Governance: The Strategies and Characteristics of Islamist Insurgent Rule” is being published by Columbia University Press.
In this book, Marta Furlan examines rebels’ experiments in governance, considering issues such as the treatment of minorities, the extent of civilian participation, the mechanisms used to encourage compliance, and the scope of social and political change. She assesses whether there is a single model of Salafi-Jihadist governance, the degree to which ideology and doctrine inform the behavior of Salafi-Jihadist rebel rulers, and the similarities and differences between Salafi-Jihadists and other non-state armed groups in matters of governance.
