“…But ostensibly it was linked structurally to the erosion of postcolonial nation states and the normalization of violence in times of chronic instability, as witnessed today across the MENA region and Central Asia (Rohde 2016). In contrast, during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, in the era of ascendant nation-states, modernist forms of bourgeois masculinity claimed hegemonic status in the MENA region and other colonized areas, simultaneously emulating and rejecting colonialist models and appropriating them into local contexts (Balslev 2014; Fedele 2016; Jacob 2011).…”

This article examines for the first time the jihadist global hegemonic masculinity of Osama bin Laden. Based on Bin Laden’s public statements translated into English, the authors examine how in the process of constructing a rationale for violent attacks primarily against the United States, he simultaneously and discursively formulates a jihadist global hegemonic masculinity. The research adds to the growing interest in discursive global hegemonic masculinities, as well as jihadist masculinities in the Middle East, by scrutinizing how Bin Laden’s jihadist global hegemonic masculinity is produced in and through his public statements. The authors close their discussion by demonstrating how Bin Laden’s discursive practices are embedded in a clash of competing global hegemonic masculinities on the world stage.
