| Summary/Abstract |
The spectre of a retrograde, puritanical and belligerent ideology may seem anachronistic in the twenty-first century. However, Jihadism (as opposed to the classical reified conception of Jihad) is a thoroughly modern phenomenon. The Internet, that most contemporary of media, is increasingly its medium of choice: Jihadist websites, forums and blogs flourish. This article examines the audience, the functions of the internet for Jihadists, how Jihadist media derives legitimacy, radicalization, and Jihadist media as an alternative paradigm.
