Season of Wolves

'A necessary account of the many ways in which the war on terror has fundamentally altered the political, economic, and everyday lives of people around the world to make for a truly dystopian future'

-- Faisal Devji, Beit Professor of Global and Imperial History, University of Oxford

'Mohamedou understood earlier than most that 9/11 marked the beginning of a new political and geopolitical age. This book is his sweeping account of how war, fear, technology and power reshaped our world, and how, in the name of security, the exceptional slowly became the new normal'

-- Ghassan Salame, Professor Emeritus of International Relations, Paris Institute of Political Studies

'Season of Wolves sums up the scream the world has lived for the last quarter of a century. It is a patient and precise account of the pathological universe the world has witnessed with the horrors of endless wars and the malice of mass surveillance culminating in genocidal orgies live-streamed for the whole world to see. With the untimely passing of its author, the text now reads like a precious oracle by a deeply learned, caring, and confident voice the world has alas lost much too early'

-- Hamid Dabashi, Hagop Kevorkian Professor of Iranian Studies and Comparative Literature, Columbia University

'Powerful ... The nightmarish beginning of this century has never been so acutely dissected and sensitively presented as it is in this tour de force into our present age of darkness. This book is an essential companion in any contemplation of how to lead humanity into a far more hopeful and humane future.'

-- Ilan Pappé, Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies, University of Ex
