I see modern Fundamentalism as a product of, and a reaction against the modern secular world that is so dominant today. There have always been fundamentalists movements of various kinds, but I don't think they've been so widespread and obvious as they are today.
What I find interresting about some fundamentalists movements is, while they often rage against the modern society, they are also quick to use the products of said society, such as technology.
