Podcast: Wicked Jihad
A new podcast. Counter terrorism policy in Western Europe is increasingly about preventing violent extremism before it arises, by lessening the appeal of groups like al-Qaeda. Most work tends to focus on the structural factors such as foriegn policy, societal discrimination, and a lack of local leadership.
This week, Jamie Bartlett explains why we need to understand what the appeal of al-Qaeda might be, from the sense of adventure and feelings of personal agency through to street credibility.
