In the two decades since the attack on the Twin Towers in Manhattan, a new world has taken shape-one defined by endless war, mass surveillance, and militarisation. Season of Wolves is a sweeping and urgent account of how this post-9/11 age of brutality was born, and how it continues to shape our lives today.
From the battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq to Libya and Syria, Mohammad-Mahmoud Ould Mohamedou traces the international reverberations of the so-called 'War on Terror' and the political, economic, and cultural transformations it unleashed. He examines the rise of militarised foreign policy, the securitisation of everyday life, the global surge in authoritarianism, and the invasive creep of technology into the most private corners of our lives.
Drawing on decades of research and a truly global perspective, Season of Wolves is both a damning indictment of the post-9/11 governance and a crucial guide to understanding how we got here-and what must change.

Mohammad-Mahmoud Ould Mohamedou (1968 - 2024) was a political historian, diplomat and acclaimed public intellectual. His books include a trilogy of the post-9/11 era: Contre-Croisade - Le 11 Septembre et le Retournement du monde, Understanding Al Qaeda and A Theory of ISIS. His writing brought a fresh approach to the studies of extremism, conflict, political violence and peace-building. He was a committed pan-Africanist and pan-Arabist. He worked as Professor of International History at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies in Geneva, and served as Mauritania's youngest foreign minister in 2008.
