Thanks a lot for this video! I've just read L'islam mondialise and I found it extraordinary. Olivier Roy offers in a coherent manner objective and detailed analyses of events and their evolution, too. I recommend two other books written by him: Iran:Comment sortir d'une revolution religieuse? and L'Asie Centrale contemporaine.
