Islamic State’s Qutbist Statehood: a Systemic Threat to the Concept of Sovereignty as a Primary Institution of the English School of International Relations
description
The insurgent organisation called Islamic State (IS) has changed the paradigm of the territorial statehood, by threatening the concept of Westphalian and international legal sovereignty. IS’s medieval caliphate territorial project is based on a powerful anti-secular interpretation of the sovereignty. IS’s interpretation of the sovereignty is inspired by Sayyid Qutb’s thought, who said the Western concept of sovereignty is in contrast with Islam. State actors generally accept sovereignty, according to the English School of International Relations, as one of the systemic principles of order, defined as “primary institutions.” Consequently, Qutbist statehood represents an ideological challenge to these ideas

State actors generally accept sovereignty, according to the English School of International Relations, as one of the systemic principles of order, defined as “primary institutions.” Consequently, Qutbist statehood represents an ideological challenge to these ideasL’organisation d’insurgés appelée Etat islamique (EI) a changé le paradigme de l’Etat territorial, en menaçant le concept de la souveraineté juridique internationale et de la Westphalien. Le projet territorial du khalifat médiéval de l’EI est basé sur une puissante interprétation anti-laïque de la souveraineté. L’interprétation de la souveraineté de l’EI est inspirée par la pensée de Sayyid Qutb, qui a déclaré que le concept occidental de la souveraineté est en contraste avec l’islam. Les acteurs étatiques acceptent généralement la souveraineté, selon l’École anglaise des relations internationales, en tant que principes systémiques de l’ordre, défini comme une des «institutions primaires.» Par conséquent, l’Etat Qutbiste représente un défi idéologique à ces idéesLa organización insurgente denominada Estado Islámico (EI) ha cambiado el paradigma de la condición de Estado territorial, con la amenaza al concepto de soberanía legal internacional y westfaliana. El proyecto territorial de califato medieval de EI se basa en una poderosa interpretación antisecular de la soberanía. La interpretación de la soberanía de EI se inspira en el pensamiento de Said Qutb, quien dijo que el concepto occidental de la soberanía está en contraste con el Islam. Los actores estatales generalmente aceptan la soberanía, de acuerdo con la Escuela inglesa de las Relaciones Internacionales, como unos de los principios sistémicos de orden, que se definen como “instituciones primarias.” Por consiguiente, la estatalidad Qutbist representa un desafío ideológico para estas idea2017text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=6247585(Revista) ISSN 2341-0868Paix et sécurité internationales: Journal of International Law and International Relations, ISSN 2341-0868, Nº. 5, 2017, pags. 181-198engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
