Spectacular Few Prisoner Radicalization And The Evolving Terrorist Threat

Description:

Drawing from a wide range of sources - including historical case studies of prisoner radicalization reaching from Gandhi, to Malcolm X, to Bobby Sands and the detainees of Guantanamo; contemporary archival research; and interviews with intelligence officers and prisoners - this book imagines the texture of prisoners' lives. Hamm covers prisoners' criminal thinking styles, the social networks that influence them, and the personal "turning points" that can set them on the path to violent extremism.
