초록
Homegrown terrorism is a growing security problem in Western Europe and a challenge for politicians and academics. In an attempt to comprehend the problem, academics have pointed out various theories, which this study categorizes as the individual level of analysis and socio-political level of analysis. While the individual level of analysis explains the individual reasons which may lead a person to become radicalized and eventually a homegrown terrorist, the socio-political level deals with recruitment led by the Islamic State (IS). This study intends to provide an answer as to which level of analysis is more suitable for a better understanding of the problem through the case of 2015 Paris attacks. This study demonstrates that the individual level of analysis is useful only to explain preconditions, while the socio-political level explains the necessary conditions for an individual to join a terrorist organization.
Abstract
Homegrown terrorism is a growing security problem in Western Europe and a challenge for politicians and academics. In an attempt to comprehend the problem, academics have pointed out various theories, which this study categorizes as the individual level of analysis and socio-political level of analysis. While the individual level of analysis explains the individual reasons which may lead a person to become radicalized and eventually a homegrown terrorist, the socio-political level deals with recruitment led by the Islamic State (IS). This study intends to provide an answer as to which level of analysis is more suitable for a better understanding of the problem through the case of 2015 Paris attacks. This study demonstrates that the individual level of analysis is useful only to explain preconditions, while the socio-political level explains the necessary conditions for an individual to join a terrorist organization.
