Islamist Territorially Anchored Violent Non-State Actor in the International System
Journal Title: Vojenske rozhledy - Year 2015, Vol 24, Issue 3
Abstract
Islamist territorially anchored violent non-state actors (ITAVNSAs) seeking to change the status quo of the current international system constitute one of the greatest challenges the international order based on mutual respect of equal sovereign states. These actors in areas without the presence of power states use explicit cross-border violence to achieve their objective in accordance with universal Islamist ideology – the construction of a caliphate. The paper presents in the theoretical and modern historical perspectives methods of reduction of anarchy in the international system – power, economic, legalistic and normative – and highlights the reasons why face to face of these actors, these heretofore functional ways, be it on a regional or system level of analysis, fail.
