Abstract

This writing explained ideology and politics action by ISIS extremism group in North Sinai, Egypt in November 2017 as a study with post foundationalism. Most studies and researches so far developing regarding this group action and ideology have been merely dominated by the thought based on descriptive review. This writing also describes that it needs some reconsideration for action, ideology, and politics they were applying in their past terror action. The method and approach used in describing this case was qualitative research method using literature review and Post-Foundational thinking framework by Jean Luc Nancy and Saul Newman. The result showed that in understanding this group emergence should be particular by not fixing either the study result or thought from certain experts on ISIS group, as such way thinking would finally present inexactitude and incoherence in mapping the ISIS group’s political ideology, goal, or dynamics. Furthermore, in either understanding or reading ISIS group, though it could not be denied if it would be needed a foundation rooting from either ISIS group formation history or previous studies trying to probe this group ideology; however it would be better not to make all of them as the sturdy basis or foundation and immune from improvements. Finally, the terror performed in this North Sinai was led by two things: the government understanding about this group tended more to apply point of view as what Nancy called as politics, in that its understanding was overly organizational.
