The holy war "made in Germany"

About this book

In the early 20th century, the concept of a "Holy War" emerged as a potent force within the geopolitical landscape, particularly in the context of the Ottoman Empire. In "The Holy War 'Made in Germany'," Dr. C. Snouck Hurgronje delves into the intricate relationship between religious fervor and political ambition, examining how these elements intersected during a pivotal era. With a focus on the implications of jihad and the role of European powers, this work provides a critical analysis of the motivations behind such declarations. Ideal for historians and civic activists, this compelling narrative sheds light on the complexities of faith and politics, revealing insights that resonate in contemporary discussions of religious conflict and national identity.
