An Intimate Relationship Non-State Armed Actors and Statehood

"This important book takes a novel interdisciplinary perspective on violent extremism, one of the defining issues of the 21st century. Rich in theoretical insights and empirical findings, it is a must read for anyone interested in today's challenges to world stability and security."
Arie W. Kruglanski, Distinguished University Professor, University of Maryland

"Jaume metamorphizes a harsh IR topic into a pleasant read. He structures his ideas around a clear argument for seeking statehood, which functions as a center of gravity, and works it all out through a liquid and captivating writing style. His book is a notable contribution to the IR research agenda."
Nuno Morgado, Assistant Professor of Geopolitics, Corvinus University of Budapest
