This survey article deals with a network that can be loosely described as the ‘Counter Jihad Movement’ (CJM). CJM activists are a loose collection of bloggers, political parties, street movements, think tanks, campaign groups and pundits across several countries, all united by the shared belief that, to some degree, the ‘Muslim world’ is at war with the ‘West’. Overall, the CJM shares a great deal with right wing extremism more broadly. However, the movement is varied enough that not all components sit easily alongside traditional conceptions of right wing extremism. Occasionally the CJM have been indirectly implicated in violence. In July 2011, 77 people, the majority members of the left-wing Workers Youth League, were murdered in Norway in attacks carried out by Anders Behring Breivik. Breivik attempted to justify his attacks in a compendium of political thought that drew heavily on the writings of CJM sources. This article attempts to provide an overview of the CJM and highlight some of the key research debates in the area, including the potential rhetorical relationship between state-backed counter terrorism and the CJM, links to violence, and the similarities and contrasts between the CJM and traditional far-right narratives.

我们为什么战斗：了解反圣战运动

这篇调查文章涉及的网络可以粗略地描述为“反圣战运动”（CJM）。CJM激进主义者散布着多个国家的博客作者，政党，街头运动，智囊团，竞选团体和专家，这些共同点是，在某种程度上，“穆斯林世界”正在与“西方”交战'。总体而言，CJM与右翼极端主义有着广泛的共通点。但是，机芯变化很大，因此并非所有组成部分都可以轻松地与右翼极端主义的传统观念并驾齐驱。有时，CJM间接牵涉到暴力。2011年7月，在安德斯·贝林·布雷维克（Anders Behring Breivik）的袭击中，有77人（左翼工人青年联盟的多数成员）在挪威被谋杀。布雷维克试图在政治思想纲要中证明自己的袭击是正当的，该纲要极大地吸引了中欧共和党人士的著作。本文试图概述CJM，并重点介绍该领域的一些主要研究辩论，包括国家支持的反恐与CJM之间的潜在修辞关系，暴力联系以及CJM和CJM之间的相似之处和对比之处。传统的极右叙事。
