Description: Jihadi-Salafism by Knut Marcus RØsnæs The book explores possible reasons why people aredrawn to violent Islamist groups. This is done bymapping psychological mechanisms which might beeffective in the process of making individualsreceptive to the jihadi-Salafi ideology. The booksperspective stems from the conviction that thestructural conditions in a given society aredecisive in the propagation of radical oppositionalgroups.The psychological mechanism known as the sour-grapessyndrome will serve to illustrate the effect of thesocio-economic conditions in the Middle East. InJean de La Fontaines fable, a fox decides that thegrapes he can not reach are sour and thus not worthhaving. In the current context I will argue thatsome of the aversion towards Western stylegovernment and social order, stems from thismechanism; as the western worlds standard of livingand individual freedom appear unattainable to peopleliving in many Muslim countries, they react byopposing these values.
