RT Book T1 The violence pendulum: tactical change in Islamist groups in Egypt and Indonesia T2 Oxford scholarship online Political Science A1 Matesan, Ioana Emy LA English PP New York, NY PB Oxford University Press YR 2020 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1738692000 AB What drives Islamist groups to shift between nonviolent and violent tactics? When do groups move away from armed action, and why do some organizations renounce violence permanently, while others only place it on hold temporarily? 'The Violence Pendulum' answers these questions and offers a theory of tactical change that explains both escalation and de-escalation. The analysis traces the historical evolution of four key Islamist groups: the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya in Egypt, and Darul Islam and Jemaah Islamiyah in Indonesia.
