Islamism is not an abstract formula of Islamic faith, or even an excess of Islam. It comes from that context, yet in another level. This article will analyse it as a movement that, like any other social and political movement, has a certain doctrine and look for inspiration in a secular ideology that uses specific forms of political action to be succeeded. However, there is a difference: it is an ideology with religious precepts that become an immediate praxis, i.e., these precepts are reduced to instruments of analysis of social and political conflicts, thus justifying the dynamics political hostile political takeover. Islamism is a political ideology when forges governing formulas, based on the Quran, that demand the establishment of an Islamic state. It remains to determine the influence of religion in this political ideology. Adapted from the source document.

In this essay, we are mostly interested in Islamism as a phenomenon that affects the European epistemic community dealing with security issues. As Raymond Aron often remarked, the work of the political scientist is about destroying the myths that surround both politicians and intellectuals. According to this, we aim to clarify the language and the narratives used in the current debate on European Islamism. Hence, we will divide our essay into three parts: codification of the general characteristics of Islamism as an ideology; description of how European Islamism acts among European societies; and finally we develop an analytical perspective on the issue, by refusing the dominant paradigm, which we believe too biased by an excess of communitarian and religious identity.

This article examines the evolution of Portuguese colonial policies regarding Islam in Guinea and Mozambique. Such policies turned from an image of Muslim as foe to a more reconciling picture, in which Muslims could be presented as potential allies of the Portuguese power in the war against nationalist movements. The article analyses those strategies and the actors that were behind them: the Catholic Church, the core of political power and its local ramifications in the colonies.
