Which socializing agents are influential in people joining terror
groups? What ideologies do terror groups hold? Which aspects of
societies and social contexts contribute towards groups forming and
people joining them? This book considers a range of influential
terror groups from the last 40 years, exploring relationships
between people, local and global social processes, and activities
that result in acts of terrorism. Examining Islamic groups
alongside nationalist, 'red' and far right organizations, Stephen
Vertigans identifies important similarities in the social contexts,
experiences of members and some of their demands. Key questions are
applied to a range of case studies of contemporary relevance. The
groups studied originated from Europe, the United States, Asia and
Africa and are associated with religion, nationalism, pro-state
terrorism, militias and racism. Each chapter offers the reader a
clear understanding about why particular terror groups form, while
comparative analysis draws out commonalities and distinctions.
