Drawing on Western and non-Western case studies, it assesses how governments around the world use counter-terrorism measures, be it through policing, the judicial process, state-sponsored programs or community approaches, to address extremist radicalization. This edited volume offers a practical and systematic tool for understanding the controversial dynamics of de-radicalization and extremism in the context of global terrorism. Since 2010 there has been a sharp increase in the number of extreme jihadist groups around the world. A surge in right-wing radicalization marked by hate speech and anti-immigrant anxieties has also been noted. States have subsequently sought to develop approaches to counter these groups, with variable success. While countries like Denmark have been relatively successful in countering radicalization, others like the United Kingdom and France have seen an increase in the number of terrorist attacks. Using comparative analysis, this book examines the controversial subject of de-radicalization as a tool of the state in modifying political behaviour. Drawing on Western and non-Western case studies, it assesses how governments around the world use counter-terrorism measures, be it through policing, the judicial process, state-sponsored programs or community approaches, to address extremist radicalization. It also considers how effective these policies have been in modifying extremist forms of behaviour, and why some countries have been more successful than others. It will appeal to scholars and students of public policy, international human rights, international relations and counter-terrorism studies. Haval Ahmad is an Associate Faculty at the School of Humanitarian Studies and School of Leadership Studies, Royal Roads University, Canada. Kenneth Christie is Professor and Director of the School of Humanitarian Studies, Royal Roads University, Canada. Binoy Kampmark is Senior Lecturer in the School of Global, Urban and Social Studies, RMIT University, Australia.
