abstract="Depictions of the West abound in the propaganda produced by the self-proclaimed &quot;Islamic State,&quot; presenting to potentially sympathetic audiences an overwhelmingly negative image of a supposedly homogeneous political entity. Combining quantitative and qualitative language and visual analysis, we systematically expose the various facets of this image and analyze the overall picture. Drawing on the &quot;clash of civilizations&quot; literature as well as on research on extremist language, we conceptualize this presentation of the West as a powerful radicalizing voice shaping today's global civilizational politics.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
