Hardcover. Zustand: Gut. XIV, 282 pp., 29 b/w ill., 1 table. A good and clean copy. - Summary This book explores the channels through which Islamic fundamentalism has spread among Muslim populations in the Balkans since the fall of communism. The authors collectively examine political and religious ties between Balkan Muslims and various private organizations and state institutions in Muslim states, with a particular focus on the reception of Salafism and its Saudi version, Wahhabism. In that context, they debate the extent to which war crimes committed by Muslims during the Yugoslav Wars were motivated by Salafism, rather than being a result of domestic ethno-national conflicts. Finally, the book also addresses the ideological climate that has generated volunteers for Islamic State (Daesh) in recent years. Cumulatively these essays emphasize the risks to national security in the Western Balkans represented by the return of Islamic State fighters and the spread of so-called jihadist-Salafism within Muslim communities. The volume is intended to help the reader understand the Balkan states foreign policy as a response towards the Muslim world in the context of the global war against terrorism. It is the outcome of a research project of the Balkan History Association. - Table of Contents: Preface -- Introduction: Post-communist Encounters in Islamic Faith and Security in the Balkans (Mihai Dragnea) -- Chapter One: Constructing a New Threat: The Securitization of Islam in Post-war Kosovo (Joseph Coelho) -- Chapter Two: Islamic Radicalization in Kosovo: A Case in Multi-layered Identity (Henrique Schneider) -- Chapter Three: Salafism in Albania between Deculturation and Post-socialist Legacy (Gianfranco Bria) -- Chapter Four: Mainstream and Online Media, a Useful Tool on Fighting Violent Extremism in Albania (Iris Luarasi) -- Chapter Five: Building a Community Resilient to the Islamic Radicalism: A Case Study of the Muslim Community in Montenegro (Marko Savic and Almedina Vukic Martinovic) -- Chapter Six: Risks for Islamic Fundamentalism and Radicalism after the Fall of Communism in Bulgaria (Bogdana Todorova) -- Chapter Seven: Missionary Islamic NGOs in Romania: Da'wah Materials Disseminated among Muslims in Romania (Cornel Andrei Crisan) -- Chapter Eight: Mujahideen in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 until 1995 (Mijo Beljo and Lucija Zadro) -- Chapter Nine: Foreign Fighters and Global Jihad in the Balkans: The Case of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Michalis Marioras) -- Chapter Ten: Factors That Moderate Islamic Radicalization in North Macedonia (Zhidas Daskalovski) -- Chapter Eleven: "Islamic Terrorism" in the Serbian Sand ak under Salafi Influence (Darko Trifunovic) -- Chapter Twelve: Beyond the Balkans: Islamist Terrorism in Europe with Balkan Connections (Klemen Kocjancic) -- Conclusion: The Trajectory of Islamist Militancy in the Balkans (John Nomikos and Joseph Fitsanakis).

'This volume shows that Muslim communities in the Western Balkans face intense propaganda from radical Islam and the incitement of hatred and interreligious divisions, aiming to indoctrinate moderate and tolerant Balkan Muslims. Kosovar youth, for instance, are exposed to a radical ideology which, under the influence of imams trained in fundamentalist madrassas in the Middle East, aims to create a new kind of Muslim, one who is ignorant of the past, of national identity and the values of democracy, and who is concerned only with 'Islamic' values propagated through Salafism.'-Kolë Krasniqi, University 'Haxhi Zeka' in Peja, Kosovo'Although Islam has historically been a socio-cultural pillar of Southeast European societies, the recent turmoil and failed revolutions across the Muslim world have influenced sections of Muslim communities in the region. This excellent collected volume is a much-needed attempt to trace the subtle workings of re-Islamisation and changes in traditional Muslim identities under the influence of foreign forms of Islam. All chapters show remarkable scholarly achievement and the fruitfulness of pursuing interdisciplinary perspectives on the development of Balkan Muslims communities since 1989.'-Francesco Trupia, Nicolaus Copernicus University, Poland.…
