In the wake of the Paris, Beirut, and San Bernardino terrorist attacks, fears over 'homegrown terrorism' have surfaced to a degree not seen since September 11, 2001.

A sought-after commentator in France and a widely respected international scholar of radical Islam, Farhad Khosrokhavar has spent years studying the path towards radicalization, focusing particularly on the key role of prisons. Based on interviews with dozens of Islamic radicals, Khosrokhavar explores how prisons serve as incubators of a particular brand of outrage that has yielded so many attacks over the past decade.

Radicalization delves into these pressing issues, offering insights and analysis from a leading expert in the field.
