Marc Hecker and 脡lie Tenenbaum: The End of the War on Terror?

Hybrid Event: Virtual & Q-604
Wednesday, December 8, 2021 - 17:30 to 19:00

The lecture will draw on the book The Twenty Years鈥� War: Jihadism and Counterterrorism in the XXIst Century. Based on several years of field investigations, this book, which was recently awarded the Prix du livre g茅opolitique, offers the first history of the war on terrorism from 2001 to today. The authors decipher the strategic dynamics of this conflict by explaining why it is so difficult to break the spiral of violence and look back over these two decades of fighting in order to find essential lessons for the future.

It has already been twenty years since the World Trade Center towers came crashing down. Who would have believed that, two decades later, the global war on terrorism continues without an end in sight? From the sands of the Sahara to the jungles of southeast Asia and from the Iraqi plains to the Afghani mountains, the West and its allies are still chasing down the jihadist movement with faultless determination. The threat is not limited to far-off countries; Europe, and especially France, have paid a high price for this long conflict.
