Radicalisation: you've all heard of it, but what actually is it and how- from a scientific, not an opinion-based, perspective- does it happen? Let's find out!
This episode integrates a huge range of information, encompassing a metric shit-ton of theories, models, and evidence to synthesise a definitive, evidence-based model on just how- scientifically- this process happens. We will explore all kinds of radicalisation, focusing on Islamist and Western alt-right radicalism- and what we can do about it.
Radicalisation of both these ilks has been on the rise in the 21st century: this episode illuminates why- politically, psychologically, sociologically, and economically- why that is. It explores the components of radicalisation, how they all interact, how the process works, and what the end result is. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy a soothing discussion on terrorism 🤗🥰 Remember, clips of these episodes is on my YouTube channel @danielaaronlevy, where you can listen to me yapping at a more manageable ~5-20 minutes at a time. The paper I wrote proposing a new, integrative model of radicalisation can also be found on my website, daniellevy.com .
