Jean-Pierre Filiu authored some twenty books, including “The Arab Revolution, ten lessons from the democratic uprising”, published in 2011 by C. Hurst & Co. (in the UK) and Oxford University Press (in the USA). This was the first academic attempt at explaining the movement that led to the demise of the presidents of Tunisia and Egypt in January–February 2011.

With the same two publishers in the UK and the USA, he edited, along with Stéphane Lacroix, “Revisiting the Arab uprisings, the politics of a revolutionary moment” (2018). His previous research focused on the multi-faceted adaptation of Islam to globalized modernity. He described the conflicting dialectics between local and global jihad. And he highlighted how radical movements try to “modernize” traditional concepts, giving them a new meaning previously unknown in Islam, for instance in the case of the caliphate. His works have been translated and/or published in some fifteen languages.
