Summary/Abstract |
THE UNINTERRUPTED ESCALATION of the threat of international terrorism; its expansion under the banner of so-called "political Islam" on the territories of the Near East and North Africa, and of South and Southeast Asia; and its penetration into Europe and Central Asia have shown that the core of the radicalization of hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of people, and of their involvement in the cruelest and most violent of crimes on the greatest of scales, is primarily the terrorist ideology - an overarching, universal, all-encompassing, and extremely effective, inexpensive, and accessible instrument of mobilization, recruiting terrorists, planning terrorist attacks, undermining public safety and political security, destabilizing governments and law and order, and furthering terrorist aims.

Summary/Abstract |
THE YEAR 2016 showed ever more graphically and forcefully the depth of the value crisis of the Western political system led by the United States and its allies, regional and European. The remaining community of non-Western states increasingly distrust and even reject the West-imposed "gifts" of neoliberalism, which, according to prominent U.S. philosopher Noam Chomsky, has changed since Adam Smith's days only in terms of the scope of its expansion. Previously, these "gifts" were touted by traders and industrialists who used state power to serve their interests despite the painful consequences for others, including the British people ("others" are colonies, mandated territories and so on); now the goals are more wide-ranging and ambitious: entire countries and regions of the world, as well as the entire world itself.
