What is Jihadism

Practices, Challenges, and Prospects of Digital Ethnography as a Multidisciplinary Method
The activism committed with advancing the political Islam agenda resorting to any action and communication intended to endanger or harm a person who is neither carrying arms in behalf of a proven hostile security apparatus nor in a managerial position required by conducting armed operations. † Jihadism is also an extremist political Islam rather than Islam, so its goals are clearly not so about religion as about economy, politics, history and strengthening its own Jihadist political identity before the postmodernisms and the globalization.

Shame on You!: Digital Ethnography, Suicide, Stigma, and Warfare
Manuel Lozano Rodriguez (American University of Sovereign Nations, Spain)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-6684-4190-9.ch014
Abstract
This chapter is a philosophical essay on how digital ethnography can shed light upon digital hate (especially homicidal hate) and self-harm. The author will do it by attending to the planned (ex)termination of a physical and social individual by herself or by the few ones' havoc against the rest of the people. Likewise, the author will meditate on the reality of lobbies and parties' silent wars and liberticide from different perspectives (post-structuralist, feminist, etc.) to attain a plural view on it while observing the role of digital ethnography in societies ranging from Indonesia to Spain. Therefore, it's an original study that embraces a unique scope of the unwilling ending of human existence and personas from a different and non-politicised angle.
