ALEXANDER MELEAGROU-HITCHENS
The American Foreign Policy Council, a DC based think-tank, has recently released the online version of its World Almanac of Islamism. It is a very useful first stop for researchers and others interested in the different forms of Islamism, and how they have developed on a global scale.
The site, currently in its Beta version, is here. It will also soon be released as a hard copy, and can be pre-ordered here.
I was lucky enough to be asked to write the UK section of the guide, which can be seen here.
Focus on Islamism is a blog dedicated to analysing and exposing the modern ideological phenomenon known as Islamism.
Shiraz Maher is a writer and broadcaster.
Alexander Meleagrou-Hitchens is a PhD student at King's College, London. He has contributed to various online and printed publications including, The Daily Telegraph, Lebanon's Daily Star, Standpoint and NOWLebanon.
