FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists

 
Featured:
Homegrown Terrorists in the US & UK:
An Empirical Examination of the Radicalization Process

Daveed Gartenstein-Ross & Laura Grossman, Foundation for Defense of Democracies
Intelligence services and experts are increasingly paying attention to the threat of “homegrown terrorism,” terrorist attacks perpetrated by individuals who were either born or raised in the West. Homegrown terrorists pose a particular concern due to the increasing number of Westerners joining militant Islamic movements, and the operatives’ familiarity with the societies they are targeting. In recent years, over two hundred men and women born or raised in the West have participated in, or provided support for Islamic terrorist plots and attacks. Several studies have examined the demographics of homegrown Islamic terrorists, and a lesser number of studies have examined their social affiliations. But to date, no study has empirically examined the process through which these terrorists are radicalizing, which constitutes a substantial gap in the literature. This study addresses the present gap through an empirical examination of behavioral manifestations of the radicalization process in 117 homegrown “jihadist” terrorists from the United States and United Kingdom.
