“…53 Herrington found evidence of past violence convictions, along with problematic drug and alcohol use, in all six Islamist extremist lone actors studied who engaged in suicide terrorism in Europe from 2013-17. 54 Further support includes the study by Gill et al where 41% of lone-actor cases were found to have previous criminal convictions, a rate significantly higher than reported anecdotally for those with links to wider terrorist networks. 55 Similarly, when investigating ideology-based profiles in a sample of North American and European cases, Bouhana et al found that extreme right-wing lone actors, compared with other lone-actor terrorists, were more likely to be non-religious thrill seekers who were born and raised in the country of attack.…”

A systematic review of the empirical literature on lone-actor terrorism, the first of its kind, is presented. Across 109 sources, ten main themes that characterise this domain are identified and described: definitions of lone-actor terrorism and typologies; heterogeneity of lone-actor terrorists; presence of mental health issues and/or personality disorders; similarities with other lone-offender criminal types; motivation to act driven by personal and ideological influences; increasing prominence of internet use; ties with other extremists, groups or wider movements; processes of attack planning and preparation; role of opportunity/triggers; and a tendency towards leakage/attack signalling.

“…As a center of economic and political activity, the city is vulnerable to becoming a potential target for extremist groups seeking to create instability (Helmus et al, 2023). Prevention, monitoring, and intelligence co-operation are essential to prevent acts of terrorism and deal with these security threats (Herrington, 2019). In addition to these issues, Jakarta also faces challenges related to environmental resilience and natural disasters.…”

This research aims to apply military mathematical models in decision making for security crisis management in DKI Jakarta Province. This research departs from the urgent need to deal with crime problems and improve regional security. Regression model is used to analyze the relationship between independent variables (Pure Participation Rate, Unemployment, Gini Index, and GRDP) and dependent variable (Criminal Risk). Historical and current data on security, education, employment, income inequality, and the economy were collected for analysis. The results show that Net Enrolment Rate and Unemployment have a negative influence on Criminal Risk, while Gini Index and GRDP have a positive influence. These findings provide a deeper understanding of the factors that contribute to the security crisis in the region. Based on the analysis results, this study concludes that the application of military mathematical models can be an important reference for the government in addressing the crime problem and improving security in DKI Jakarta Province. The proposed recommendations are to improve access to education, reduce the unemployment rate, address income inequality, and strengthen the economic sector. The implementation of integrated policies between government agencies is also considered important to achieve optimal results in overcoming the security crisis.
