Katerina Dalacoura – London School of Economics, UK: «The idea that there is a cosmic struggle between Islam and the west has been reinforced at a global level. This happened mainly through terrorism but what we are seeing really is that there has been the construction of an issue with regards to Islam and the west. But this is a manufactured crisis and people are really drowned into it. Whereas the reality, in the ground, in the Middle East region is much more complex».
