商品描述

How could a person portrayed as a terrorist by the Tajik state also be seen as a mujahid fighter in Islam and be a cousin all at the same time? Is this just a matter of perspective and conceptualization? To believe in the protection of concepts to safeguard groups and individuals from the uncertain character of the world, is to deny the existence of chance and the contradictions in life. This book uses approaches from existential anthropology to enquire into the question of how concepts and experiences relate. The focus is on the way the notions jihad, mujahid and terrorism were used during a military intervention in Tajikistan in 2010. The book includes long-term ethnographic material, popular pamphlets on Islam and an internet analysis of the conflict, offering new insights into how concepts and experiences relate. Since the end of the Soviet Union, the people from the republic Tajikistan have struggled to find a place in the larger Muslim world, a painful process unfolding in relation to global events, discourses and politics. The primary readership for the book will come from academia and policy makers.

The book presents novel material on a fascinating and highly important topic, the nature of ostensibly Islamist political violence against the state in Tajikistan.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

如何一個被塔吉克國家描繪為恐怖分子的人,同時也能被視為伊斯蘭的聖戰士(mujahid)並且是表親?這僅僅是觀點和概念化的問題嗎?相信保護概念以保障群體和個體免受世界不確定性影響,實際上是否否認了機會的存在和生活中的矛盾?本書運用存在人類學的方法探討概念與經驗之間的關係。重點在於2010年塔吉克斯坦軍事干預期間,聖戰(jihad)、聖戰士(mujahid)和恐怖主義這些概念的使用方式。本書包含長期的民族誌資料、關於伊斯蘭的流行小冊子以及對衝突的網路分析,提供了關於概念與經驗如何相關的新見解。自蘇聯解體以來,塔吉克斯坦人民一直在努力尋找在更大穆斯林世界中的位置,這是一個與全球事件、話語和政治相關的痛苦過程。本書的主要讀者將來自學術界和政策制定者。

本書呈現了關於一個迷人且極為重要的主題——在塔吉克斯坦,表面上是伊斯蘭主義的政治暴力對國家的性質的新材料。
