The field of radicalization studies, which intersects within the
fields of sociology, law, criminology, and criminal justice,
focuses particularly on the social dynamics of terrorism from
different theoretical, conceptual, and methodological perspectives.
It is a fast-growing field in which many areas remain to be
explored. In Radicalization and Counter-Radicalization, Derek Silva
and Mathieu Deflem have gathered an interdisciplinary team of
leading experts to make a valuable contribution to the existing
literature. This book covers themes such as the notion of risk,
security, and surveillance, crime and deviance, gender, political
propaganda, media, and cultural representations of radicalization.
The volume is divided into theoretical and epistemological
interventions aimed at understanding radicalization and
counter-radicalization, the historical origins of radicalization,
how scholars within the social sciences measure processes and
pathways toward radicalization, the policing of, and law
enforcement strategies aimed at, combatting radicalization, policy
developments in the field of counter-radicalization, and
discussions related to the future of radicalization studies within
sociology, legal studies, and criminal justice. For its breadth and
depth of research, this volume of Sociology of Crime, Law and
Deviance is essential reading for researchers and students of, law,
criminology, and criminal justice.
