Abstract

The religious fundamentalist terrorism makes its presence felt yet again in Europe as well in other parts of the globe It is therefore important to find out what are its psychological resources To this end we have studied the thematic analyses written by the French specialist in political philosophy Andr Glucksmann The particularities of Glucksmann s research are the ironic-essayistic and the fact that he guides his conclusions after presenting fictional literary characters from the classical universal literature It is our conclusion that in such cases the presentation of unique literary characters representative for an idea can be more relevant than the presentation of several empirical facts
