Routledge Radicalization in Western Europe - Muslim Integration Study

This book by Routledge examines radicalization among Muslim communities across Western Europe through extensive field research in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany and France. Using identity loss as a theoretical framework, the authors address why increased integration has paradoxically stimulated greater radicalization among Muslim populations. The study investigates critical questions about second and third generation Muslims in Europe, the rise of home-grown terrorism compared to decades past, and regional variations in radicalization patterns across European countries. Drawing on comprehensive research findings, this Contemporary Terrorism Studies volume provides insight into the complex relationship between integration, public discourse and identity formation within European Muslim communities.
