This book seeks to understand the processes of reintegration of
former Jihadist detainees, as well as the role that the police and
other frontline professionals play in this process. Over the past
few decades the number of people who have been detained under the
suspicion of terrorist activities has grown significantly. This has
resulted in an increased scholarly interest in the topic of prisons
and terrorism. However, the main focus of academic research has
been on the period of incarceration with researchers paying
extensive attention to the conditions under which terrorists have
been detained as well as to various processes of alienation and
(violent) radicalisation that sometimes take root while in prison.
Much less has been written about the period after their
incarceration and the steps being taken to prepare them for that
transition. This book seeks to fill this gap. It argues that
sentencing or incarcerating terrorism suspects is not the end of
the story, but just the beginning of the next phase: a process of
reintegration, or the start of a new cycle of violence. This
exploratory study outlines the factors during and after detention
that contribute or hinder the reintegration of those who have been
incarcerated for violent extremism and terrorism. The overriding
aim of this work is to facilitate further research into the
radicalisation and de-radicalisation of jihadist suspects. This
book will be of much interest to students of terrorism and
counter-terrorism, Islamist radicalisation, criminology and
security studies in general.
