This book presents original research on gender and the power
dynamics of diverse forms of violent extremism, and efforts to
counter them. Based on focus group and interview research with some
250 participants in Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands and UK
in 2015 and 2016, it offers insights from communities affected by
radicalisation and violent extremism. It introduces the concept of
gendered radicalisation, exploring how the multiple factors of
paths to violent extremist groups - social, local, individual and
global - can differ for both men and women, and why. The book also
offers a critical analysis of gender and terrorism; a summary of
current policy in the five countries of study and some of the core
gendered assumptions prevalent in interventions to prevent violent
extremism; a comparison of Jihadi extremism and the far right; and
a chapter of recommendations. This book is of use to academics,
policy-makers, students and the general reader interested in better
understanding a phenomenon defining our times.
