Deadly Clerics: Blocked Ambition and the Paths to Jihad - Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics
Nielsen, Richard A. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)
Deadly Clerics explains why some Muslim clerics adopt the ideology of militant jihadism while most do not. The book explores multiple pathways of cleric radicalization and shows that the interplay of academic, religious, and political institutions has influenced the rise of modern jihadism through a mechanism of blocked ambition.
