This book examines contemporary jihad as a cult of violence and power. Murawiec compares this belief structure to that of Europe's medieval millenarians and apocalyptics and traces their political technologies to the Bolsheviks, using history, anthropology, and theology to understand the mind of jihad, which has declared war on the West.
