Occidentalism: The West In The Eyes Of Its Enemies
By
Ian Buruma & Avishai Margalit
This investigation into the stereotypes of the Western world that fuel hatred in the hearts of Al-Qaeda argues that the origins of these dreams lies in the West itself. The anti Western virus has found ready host in the Islamic world for a number of reasons, but it is not native there. The West that these Jihadis imagine themselves fighting is the same menace that has haunted the thoughts of revolutionary groups since the early nineteenth century.
