Abstract

This chapter looks at the rise of anticolonial terrorism in Egypt, and especially at the role played by the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. It argues that assassination became established among anticolonial nationalists in Egypt before the Brotherhood was founded and was then briefly practiced by the Brotherhood. The Brotherhood, however, generally preferred other varieties of violence, which it understood as jihad. Some of these were more obviously acts of political violence than others. The use of violence was never part of the Brotherhood’s main strategy, however, and in the end it proved disastrous for them. They definitively abandoned terrorism in about 1968.

《反殖民恐怖主义:埃及与穆斯林兄弟会至1954年》
本章着眼于埃及反殖民主义恐怖主义的兴起,特别是埃及穆斯林兄弟会所扮演的角色。它认为,在兄弟会成立之前,暗杀在埃及的反殖民主义民族主义者中已经确立,然后兄弟会短暂地实施了暗杀。然而,穆兄会通常更喜欢其他形式的暴力,他们将其理解为圣战。其中一些是比其他更明显的政治暴力行为。然而,使用暴力从来都不是穆兄会的主要策略,而且最终证明暴力对他们来说是灾难性的。他们在1968年左右彻底放弃了恐怖主义。
