Abstract

Jihadism is often reduced by many observers to a simple revival of a strategy rooted in the political practice of traditional Islam. Thus, some see in the Islamist movements the pivot of the said revival and consequently assimilate Jihadism to a religious phenomenon. Without denying the existence of a relationship between the interpretation of Islam and the cognitive motivation for jihadists, other direct variables deserve to be investigated, because they shape the referential frame as well as the operating frame of these variables.
