Summary: | Processes of radicalization are assessed to be dynamic processes of change and in particular transformative learning processes of attitudes and behaviours. Based on ideological foundations, they include diverse initiative motivators and triggers, different accelerators as well as various drivers and catalysts. Individuals and groups can be radicalized to the use of violence due to these multiple components, which are interacting in various ways in a complex mechanism. But it is hardly possible to make generalizations on specific factors, sequences and combinations setting up the process of radicalization. However, this does not mean, that processes of radicalization can't be understood and that research on radicalization is useless. Future analysis should decrease their focus on a desired radical profile and increase their exploration on the plurality of radicalization; the different paths and diverse ways leading people through various levels to the use of violence. |
