Narrative Landmines: Rumors, Islamist Extremism, and the Struggle for Strategic Influence - New Directions in International Studies
Daniel Leonard Bernardi
Explores how rumours fit into and extend narrative systems and ideologies, particularly in the context of terrorism, counter-terrorism, and extremist insurgencies. It also addresses the role of new and social media in the creation and spread of rumours. Its concern is to foster a more sophisticated understanding of how oral and digital cultures work alongside economic, diplomatic, and cultural factors that influence the struggles between states and non-state actors in the proverbial battle of hearts and minds.
