Beskrivning
De-radicalisation is a global phenomenon where armed organisations transform into political parties or non-violent social movements. Bullets to Ballots explores the different trajectories that this process can take whether it occurs after a military victory, a military defeat, or a draw in an armed conflict between insurgent groups and incumbent authorities. A result of a unique collaboration between leading scholars, high-level governmental practitioners and non-state organisational leaders, this volume offers a rich comparative analysis of de-radicalisation processes from around the world. It answers the questions of when, why and how collective de-radicalisation happens, and it deepens our understanding of this as a means of preventing violent extremism.

Recensioner i media

This edited collection brings together leading academic and practitioner experts on the transformation of armed and violent movements to peaceful actors across ideological milieus. Collective de-radicalisation is unfortunately still something which we know very little about. This in-depth edited volume is a milestone in the field and is highly recommend to anyone interested in the dynamics of violent conflict transformation, demobilisation and armed groups’ processes of change over time.
