Current trends in Western jihadism point to the renewed relevance of subcultural theory. This article outlines a novel subcultural perspective that synthesizes subcultural theory with recent accounts of intersectionality and argues that such an approach enables an understanding of jihadism as a collective and cultural response to a shared experience of marginalization and othering. In addition, this theoretical perspective offers a framework for comprehending the processes of bricolage central to subcultural collective creativity. This article illustrates this potential by analyzing examples of jihadi rap. Such analyses represent important contributions to studies of the broader cultural and social ecology of jihadi subculture.

亚文化视角下的圣战主义

西方圣战主义的当前趋势表明亚文化理论重新具有相关性。本文概述了一种新颖的亚文化视角，该视角将亚文化理论与最近对交叉性的描述相结合，并认为这种方法能够将圣战主义理解为对边缘化和他者的共同经历的集体和文化反应。此外，这一理论视角为理解亚文化集体创造力的核心拼贴过程提供了一个框架。本文通过分析圣战说唱的例子来说明这种潜力。这些分析代表了对更广泛的圣战亚文化文化和社会生态学研究的重要贡献。
