As Middle East scholars Frederic Wehrey and Anouar Boukhars show in \u003cem\u003eSalafism in the Maghreb\u003c\/em\u003e, it is also home to the conservative, literalist interpretation of Islam known as Salafism, which has emerged as a major social and political force. Through extensive interviews and fieldwork, Wehrey and Boukhars examine the many roles and manifestations of Salafism in the Maghreb, looking at the relationship between Salafism and the Maghreb's ruling regimes, as well as competing Islamist currents, increasingly youthful populations, and communal groups like tribes and ethno-linguistic minorities. They pay particular attention to how seemingly immutable Salafi ideology is often shaped by local contexts and opportunities. Informed by rigorous research, deep empathy, and\u003cbr\u003eunparalleled access to Salafi adherents, clerics, politicians, and militants, \u003cem\u003eSalafism in the Maghreb\u003c\/em\u003e offers a definitive account of this important Islamist current.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrederic Wehrey\u003c\/strong\u003e is a senior fellow in the Middle East program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
