The Clash of Fundamentalisms: Crusades, Jihads and Modernity
Tariq Ali
Verso, 2003, paperback, 429 pp.
Challenges the assumptions surrounding Sept. 11, arguing instead that what we have experienced is the return of History in a horrific form, with religious symbols playing a part on both sides: "Allah's revenge" and "God is on Our Side." The "war against terror" is a clash of fundamentalisms, religious vs. imperial. Blending history, literature, politics and autobiography, this book challenges the conformist culture of our times.
