Publisher's Synopsis
The Sahel region, a vast expanse of semi-arid land stretching across Africa from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea, has become a hotbed of violent extremism in recent years. The rise of extremist groups such as Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), Islamic State in the Greater Sahara (ISGS), and Boko Haram, along with the emergence of local insurgent movements, has plunged the region into a state of insecurity and instability. This book, titled "Unraveling the Shadows: Rising Trends of Violent Extremism in the Sahel Region," aims to shed light on the multifaceted dynamics underlying this troubling phenomenon.
