Beyond Narrative
View through CrossRef
This chapter addresses the symbolic power of narratives of Islamic resistance in the Tunisian context. This includes understanding why Islam constitutes a template to challenge to the politics of the status quo, historically, and therefore resonates amongst certain sections of the Tunisian nation, and understanding the power of the narrative of jihadi violence as a subset of these politics of resistance and challenge. It particularly focuses on understanding the resonance of these jihadi narratives in the wake of the 2011 Tunisian Revolution.
