Recenzii
[An] important and authoritative account of ISIS in America.
Deeply researched, well-written, and absolutely fascinating.
Probing the ISIS threat within the United States, the authors tap primary sources such as social media data, analysis of court cases, and personal interviews with "inspired" individuals. Theories abound as to what drives US-based terrorist attacks and how to counter them. This fine book offers original evidence. Highly recommended.
Homegrown offers an original, comprehensive, and compelling account of jihadism in America. Hughes, Meleagrou-Hitchens, and Clifford's deeply researched book offers the best assessment of the evolving terrorist threat and its many dimensions.
Well-researched and written, Homegrown fills an important gap in our knowledge of the Islamic States' "online mobilization" in America.
The rise of the Islamic State as a threat to global security has been catalogued in many articles and books. But for those seeking to understand the particularly American dimensions of that problem, there is no better source than Homegrown: ISIS in America. Messrs Meleagrou-Hitchens, Hughes and Clifford have produced an authoritative account of the who, the what and the how of ISIS in America. Drawing on a vast array of primary sources, this book will be a rich source of insight to help guide current and future policy efforts to deal with the challenge posed by violent extremist movements.
Homegrown is the most detailed examination and analysis of that terrorist organization's radicalization and recruitment efforts in the U.S. It thus fills a conspicuous gap in the literature and sheds important light on terrorist exploitation of digital media to build local attack networks and encourage violence far from the geographical locus of their ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
Rigorous, dispassionate analysis based on a trove of new information.
Homegrown combines history, social science, and old-fashioned gumshoe research to provide the clearest, most comprehensive picture of the American wing of a terror movement like no other.
A usefully quick read ... This book is an important contextualization of the threat ISIS poses to the United States.
