Book War of Ideas reviewed by Nadhera Bhea
"Basically, Walid Phares talks about the War of Ideas that has been an overarching framework of the twentieth century. Ideas have been the engine of history.

Ideas have been the driving force of the transition of historical phase that produced by philosophers, social visionaries, and politicians to guide people" Review by Nadhera Bhea

The War of Ideas: Jihadism Against Democracy Reviewed by Raymond Ibrahim
"In The War of Ideas: Jihad Against Democracy, Dr.Walid Phares-who has been studying Islamism and its impact on international relations decades before 9/11 made it popular-goes one step further by articulating the struggle from democracy's point of view. That is, not only does he delineate the general threat that radical Islam and jihad pose to the non-Muslim world; he does so through a distinctly democratic paradigm, showing what, specifically, is at stake." (Raymond Ibrahim)

Book Chapter: "Jihadism's War on Democracies"
Find a chapter by Dr Walid Phares titled "Jihadism's War on Democracies" published in the book Debating the War of Ideas edited by Eric D Patterson and John Gallagher (Palgrave Macmillan). The chapter summarizes the three wars of ideas waged by Salafists, Wahabis, Muslim Brotherhoods and Khomeinists against liberal democracies and make strategic suggestions for future policies. Phares argues that under the previous US Administration there was a failed attempt to reach out to democracy forces in the Arab and Muslim world, while under the current Administration there are efforts to partner with the Islamists and engage the Jihadists at the expense of the Muslim Democrats.
