Overview
- Shows that the influence of international norms on Islamist politics goes beyond the surface of occasional and instrumental norm-conformist behavior by Islamist actors
- Argues that international norms have a significant role in shaping patterns toward an international society in which persons can be valued by the sole virtue of their humanity and communities are respected as fundamental sources of individual well-being
- Uses the case of Lebanon’s Hezbollah to draw attention to how this Islamist movement has become more cognizant of the moral cogency of the norms of international society
