Jihadi Terrorism and the Radicalisation Challenge (eBook, PDF)

European and American Experiences

Produktbeschreibung

By its combination of novel thinking, practical experience and a theoretical approach, this collective work compares radicalisation in both continents and the strategies aimed at de-radicalisation. But it also assesses if the concept merits its reputation as the Holy Grail of terrorism studies. It rehabilitates the historical and comparative analysis as a way to grasp the essence of terrorism, including its jihadi strand.
