Abstract
Rumiyah is a classic example of the effects of that globalization has and of the
relationship that appears between mass media and terrorism. Terrorist groups have
always been concerned about the degree of loyalty of its members, on the one hand, and
attracting new supporters, on the other. In this direction they have developed successful
editorial projects. One of these editorial projects is Rumiyah magazine. Using the content
analysis method, this article is a monographic analysis of the twelve issues of Rumiyah
magazine. The main purpose of this approach is to understand the narrative discourse of
the terrorist group and the way its identity is constructed.
Keywords: Islamic State, Rumiyah, mass media, terrorism, monograph.
