Drawing on extensive field research with activists on the streets
of London, Michael Kenney provides the first ethnographic study of
a European network implicated in terrorist attacks and sending
fighters to the Islamic State. For over twenty years, al-Muhajiroun
(Arabic for 'the Emigrants') strived to create an Islamic state in
Britain through high-risk activism. A number of Emigrants engaged
in violence, while others joined the Islamic State in Iraq and
Syria. Kenney explains why young Britons joined the Emigrants, how
they radicalized and adapted their activism, and why many of them
eventually left. Through an innovative mix of ethnography and
network analysis, Kenney explains the structure and processes
behind this outlawed network and explores its remarkable
resilience. What emerges is a complex, nuanced portrait that
demystifies the Emigrants while challenging conventional wisdom on
radicalization and countering violent extremism.
