The radicalisation puzzle
This week I have not been able to stop thinking about an article I read called “The Radicalization Puzzle: A Theoretical Synthesis of Empirical Approaches to Homegrown Extremism.” Examining homegrown Islamic terrorism in Europe, the article from Hafez and Mullins synthesises the pieces of the puzzle that lead people (mostly young men, but increasingly women) toward radicalisation.
Comments Policy
I write and post about a range of often controversial issues and I love getting comments. But, this is my page, so you have to stick to some basic rules:
Don’t be rude and don’t be a bigot. I will delete anything that is patronising, attacks other commenters or is queerphobic, sexist or racist. No exeptions.
Stay on topic. While I appreciate diverse discussions please keep on topic to the original post. I will try and bring us back if we start to divert but anything that is majorly off topic will be deleted.
Avoid excessively frequent or long comments. If you have a lot to add, write a Facebook note and link to it.
No hawkers. This page is NOT somewhere to sell your goods and services, or spruik off topic issues or campaigns. Of course, link to other interesting articles or issues, but this is not a place to seel your wares.
Limit links. Any comment with more than two links could be marked as comment spam.
Trolling and sockpuppetry are not acceptable.
Other than that, run free people, run free! I will keep an eye on the page and if you break these rules I will delete your post.
