AHMED GHOTME, Rafat. Strategic redirection of Al-Qaeda: from the leadership of Osama bin Laden to mass- dimension?. Civilizar [online]. 2012, vol.12, n.22, pp.111-128. ISSN 1657-8953.
This article seeks to establish the relationship of global strategic variables of Al-Qaeda with religious ideology, political Islam, trying to incorporate a cross section and total phenomenon. It argues that the link lies in the expansion strategy and top-down decentralization created by the central base of Al-Qaeda, where regional networks have some autonomy but are determined by the central leadership and his adaptation of the Islamist ideology to an internationalist shed, revolutionary and violent organization.
