The Last Stand of Al Andalus Lessons on the Changing Nature of War from an Early Modern Islamic Insurgency Jordán Enamorado, Javier Jesús The present article pursues a two-fold purpose. The first is to identify elements of continuity throughout history in internal armed conflicts where state structures are still in the process of being formed or, if already consolidated, where they have suffered serious deterioration. The second is to present and analyze a case study that has received scant attention in scientific literature on insurgencies, namely, the War of the Alpujarras, which was fought at the beginning of the early modern period and was the last Islamic rebellion in Spain. 2024-10-14T07:14:04Z 2024-10-14T07:14:04Z 2023 journal article Published version: Javier Jordán, “The Last Stand of Al Andalus Lessons on the Changing Nature of War from an Early Modern Islamic Insurgency”, Studies in Conflict and Terrorism, Vol 46, No 6, (2023), pp. 824-846. https://doi.org/10.1080/1057610X.2020.1792739 https://hdl.handle.net/10481/95881 10.1080/1057610X.2020.1792739 eng open access Taylor and Francis
