The book delves into the rise of Islamic activism in Lebanon and the Middle East, drawing connections to similar movements in Latin America and South Africa. It examines how groups that initially opposed Western imperialism are now gaining economic and political influence. Through extensive ethnographic research, the author explores the daily experiences of resistance and the evolution of Hizbullah-affiliated charities. The analysis offers insights into the potential for resistance movements to balance power acquisition with decolonial goals, serving as a resource for global liberation struggles.
