Apstrakt

Već skoro punu deceniju IDIL važi za zapadnog radikalnog drugog, čija simbolička i stvarna prijetnja zapadnim idejama modernosti postaje sve izraženija i opasnija sa sve jednostavnijim pristupom propagandnom sadržaju putem interneta i regrutovanju putem društvenih mreža unutar velikim dijelom neregulisanog prostora za povezivanje putem različitih platformi. Ovaj rad u tom kontekstu analizira knjigu Anne Erelle U koži džihadiste i njenu filmsku adaptaciju Profil kao dva komplementarna prikaza odnosa Zapada i njegovog drugog. Ključni argument iznesen u radu jeste da je filmska adaptacija režisera Timura Bekmambetova, kao baumanovsko kritičko viđenje zapadne pozne modernosti, svojevrsna dopuna i dorada predloška i njegovog liberalnog viđenja džihadističke drugosti. Profil tako na Zapad i IDIL gleda kao na dvije suprotstavljene univerzalističke vizije svijeta, te prilikom suočavanja sa prijetećom drugošću kao slikom na kompjuterskom ekranu Zapad ne treba da vidi samo moralno inferiornog neprijatelja koga je potrebno razotkriti, transformisati ili, na koncu, poraziti nego i refleksiju sopstvenih poznomodernih neuspjeha, razočaranja i frustracija.
