Rezensionen

'Sergio García Magariño's new book is big, important, and original. It is big because (though it centers on Spain), it draws on cases of religious-inspired violent radicalization from across the world. It is important because -unlike many western studies of jihadist movements- it takes the religious basis of the phenomenon seriously. And it is original because -again, unlike many reductive studies- the author combines micro, meso, and macro level factors that contribute to the phenomenon in question. This is a 'must-read', both for those who are concerned about violent radicalization in Spain and readers with a more theoretical interest in the phenomenon of religious-based violent radicalization.'
