Former Extremists

Preventing and Countering Violence

Herausgeber: Clubb, Gordon; Islam, MD Didarul; Scrivens, Ryan

Beschreibung

This collection captures a variety of controversial and contested work that former extremists and combatants engaged in across a range of contexts, broadly divided into three themes on their effectiveness, ethical considerations, and implementation. Written by a group of authors from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences, the book not only captures an ongoing policy debate but also contributes to the future direction of work involving Formers in violence prevention.
