Against Jihadi Terrorism?”

Clark McCauley uses a pyramid model of radicalization to argue that sympathy for terrorist goals can be distinguished from support for terrorist attacks. He presents polling data to show how sympathy and support for terrorism can be tracked over time. These data indicate that the U.S. is not winning the war of ideas against jihadist terrorism.

New book by Asch Associate Director for Conflict and Visual Culture Jonathan Hyman: “The Landscapes of 9/11: A photographer’s Journey” Published by the University of Texas Press the book features 100 of Hyman's photographs and six critical essays that depict and discuss the emotional aftermath of the September 11, 2001, attacks -- a time when people from all walks of life created and encountered memorials to those who were murdered. Vernacular art appeared almost everywhere—on walls, trees, playgrounds, vehicles, houses, tombstones, and even on bodies. This outpouring of grief and other acts of remembrance impelled photographer Jonathan Hyman to document and preserve these largely impermanent, spontaneous expressions. This book, a unique archive of 9/11 public memory, is the result of his compiling a collection of 20,000 photographs, along with field notes and personal interviews.
