Gnostic Jihadism : A Philosophical Inquiry into Radical Politics, Paperback / softback Book

Gnostic Jihadism : A Philosophical Inquiry into Radical Politics Paperback / softback

Part of the Philosophy series

Paperback / softback

Description

Revolutionary Gnosticism is a movement common to a great deal of modern and contemporary revolutionary phenomena such as Nazism, Bolshevism and Jacobinism.

However no one has studied Salafi- Jihadism yet, the latest existing revolutionary ideology, in gnostic terms.

If Salafi-Jihadism were a gnostic phenomenon, it would reveal its Promethean and atheist conception of the world that stands in the forgetfulness of a pure transcendent dimension, notwithstanding the apparently spiritual framework and religious justification that jihadists provide.

A similar study, hence, would reveal Salafi-Jihadis’ will of redeeming humankind from Evil (with capital letter) and building the perfect society, leaving God without a clear possibility of intervening in human affairs.
