“…While radicalization, deradicalization and disengagement are poorly defined and problematic assumptions (Clubb, 2015;Schurrman, 2018), research into both these aspects of the arc of terrorism have developed dramatically.

By making this distinction between types of de-radicalisationideological changes and changing attitudes and normative beliefs toward behaviour -the article proposes two ideal-types of former combatant agency.…”
