Psychological Perspectives on Radicalization
This innovative book examines radicalization from new psychological perspectives by examining the different typologies of radicalizing individuals, what makes individuals resilient against radicalization, and events that can trigger individuals to radicalize or to deradicalize. What is radicalization? Which psychological processes or events in a person's life play a role in radicalization? What determines whether a personal is resilient against radicalization, and is deradicalization something that we can achieve? This book goes beyond previous publications on this topic by identifying concrete key events in the process of radicalization, providing a useful theoretical framework that summari...
Routledge Handbook of Deradicalisation and Disengagement
The Routledge Handbook of Deradicalisation and Disengagement offers an overview of the historical settings, theoretical debates, national approaches and practical strategies to deradicalisation and disengagement. Radicalisation and violent extremism are major global challenges, and as new and violent extremist groups and environments emerge, there is an increasing need for knowledge about how individuals physically exit these movements and how to change their mindset. Historically, much of the focus on these topics has been highly securitised and militarised; by contrast, this volume explores the need for more community-based and ‘soft’ approaches. The handbook includes discussions from both right-wing/left-wing political and religiously inspired deradicalisation processes. The handbook is organised into three parts: 1 definitions, backgrounds and theories; 2 actors; 3 regional case studies. This handbook will be of much interest to students, researchers, scholars and professionals of deradicalisation, counterterrorism, political violence, political extremism, security studies and international relations in general.
Radicalization in Belgium and the Netherlands
The concept of 'radicalization' is now used to account for all forms of violent and non-violent political Islam. Used widely within the security services and picked up by academia, the term was initially coined by the General Intelligence and Security Service of the Netherlands (AIVD) after the 9/11 and Pentagon attacks, an origin that is rarely recognised. This book comprises contributions from leading scholars in the field of critical security studies to trace the introduction, adoption and dissemination of 'radicalization' as a concept. It is the first book to offer a critical analysis and history of the term as an 'empty signifier', that is, a word that might not necessarily refer to som...
Forensic Justice
Forensic science is playing an increasingly important role in criminal investigations, as it provides scientific methods and techniques to gather and analyse evidence from crime scenes. Forensic evidence can be crucial in identifying suspects, linking them to the crime scene, and helping to secure convictions in court. In this sense, forensic science is seen as an aid to criminal investigation, providing reliable and objective evidence that can be used to uncover the truth behind criminal activities. The integration of forensic science with law and criminology is creating a new era of progressive thinking, where advanced techniques are being developed to better understand the nature of crime...
American Muslim Perspectives on Radicalization
This book is a study of American Muslims' perspectives on Muslims who become radicalized and choose to support the Islamic State. Muslim radicalization is a global phenomenon that has affected American Muslims as it has Muslims throughout the world. In 2015, approximately 250 Americans joined the Islamic State (IS), and some still sympathize with it. Based on 51 in-depth interviews conducted in nine states from 2017 to 2021, this book offers a thematic understanding of radicalization, touching on themes such as Islamic history, Muslims' social and political identities, cultural dilemmas, radicalization outlets, mental health, media stereotypes, Islamophobia, security, and the impact of COVID-19 on radicalization. This book differs from previous scholarship on the causes of radicalization by focusing on the perspectives of non-radicalized American Muslims. While some previous scholarship has focused on Muslim radicalization in Europe, this book provides a new spectrum of views from the United States. It also offers pathways to de-radicalization. The interview data is complemented with relevant literature, analysis of media perspectives, and the author's personal observations.
The Headscarf Debates
The headscarf is an increasingly contentious symbol in countries across the world. Those who don the headscarf in Germany are referred to as "integration-refusers." In Turkey, support by and for headscarf-wearing women allowed a religious party to gain political power in a strictly secular state. A niqab-wearing Muslim woman was denied French citizenship for not conforming to national values. And in the Netherlands, Muslim women responded to the hatred of popular ultra-right politicians with public appeals that mixed headscarves with in-your-face humor. In a surprising way, the headscarf—a garment that conceals—has also come to reveal the changing nature of what it means to belong to a p...

Jugend und islamistischer Extremismus
Warum wenden Jugendliche sich dem islamistischen Extremismus zu, wie radikalisieren sie sich – und wie können Pädagog:innen einschreiten? Der Band bietet aktuelle empirische Forschungseinblicke zu Hinwendungs- und Distanzierungsprozessen junger Menschen und kombiniert diese mit pädagogischen Ansätzen des Umgangs mit islamistischem Extremismus in der Fachpraxis.

Kopftuchdebatten in Europa
Kopftuch und Identität: Wie sprechen muslimische Frauen in nationalen Debatten für sich und welcher Widerhall begegnet ihnen? Anna C. Korteweg und Gökce Yurdakul analysieren Prozesse der In- und Exklusion anhand »nationaler Narrative« sowie öffentlicher Zugehörigkeitsdiskurse zu geographischen Gemeinschaften in Frankreich, der Türkei, den Niederlanden und Deutschland. Den Fokus legen sie hierbei auf die medialen und politischen Diskussionen zu Kopftuch, Niqab und Burka, die zwischen Ablehnung, Toleranz und Aushandlung changieren. Die Aussagen muslimischer Frauen zeigen dabei, wie anhand der Kopftuchdebatten die Bedeutung nationaler Zugehörigkeit überdacht, bekräftigt und potenziell neu artikuliert werden kann. Mit einem Vorwort von Naika Foroutan.
