Hezbollah, Islamist Politics, and International Society

More about the book

Focusing on the impact of the liberal international order, the book examines how Islamist movements, particularly Hezbollah in Lebanon, navigate and adapt to international norms. It argues that these norms significantly influence Islamist politics, compelling groups to reconsider their notions of "authentic" Islamic morality in light of global principles. The analysis reveals a complex and evolving relationship between Islamist movements and international standards, resulting in a fragile yet transformative balance in their political strategies and ideologies.
