Perang salib sebagai awal imperialisme barat terhadap dunia islam
Keywords:
Crusades, western imperialism, islamic world, territorial expansion, colonialismAbstract
The Crusades were a series of military campaigns initiated by Western European Christians between the 11th and 13th centuries with the primary aim of reclaiming Jerusalem from Muslim rule. However, beyond religious motivations, the Crusades represented a significant turning point in the relationship between the Western and Islamic worlds. This study aims to analyze the Crusades as the beginning of Western imperialism toward the Islamic world. The research uses a qualitative method with a literature review approach, drawing from various academic journals and historical sources. The findings indicate that the Crusades were driven not only by religious zeal but also by political ambitions, economic interests, and the desire for territorial expansion. Furthermore, the Crusades facilitated the transfer of knowledge from the Islamic world to Europe, contributing to the rise of Western civilization. At the same time, they weakened the unity of the Islamic world. Therefore, the Crusades can be considered the foundation of Western imperialism that later developed into colonialism.
