Lessons learned about radicalization. The case of Hamas radicalization campaign and the new wave of extremism
Iulia-Mihaela Drăgan
Sažetak
Traditionally, the radicalization phenomenon has been explained as a process of individually or collectively incorporating a violent ideology based on extremism of various factors (ethnic, political, religious) in order to achieve objectives contrary to democracy and the rule of law in a state or society. The wave of extremism implies a thematic tendency in which the energy of massive groups of people is directed to extremist ends. In this article, we analyze the elements of a new wave of expanding extremism generated by the crisis in Gaza.
Thus, the article analyzes this event as a turning point for the international security architecture, in comparison with the wave of radicalization initiated by ISIS in the past decade. So, the premise of the article emphasizes that the Hamas terrorist attack represented a trigger for a new wave of extremism with global reverberations. By using a methodology based on a comparative analysis, the article intends to extract the lessons learned from the wave of terrorism generated by ISIS in relation to the new elements identified in the wave of extremism in development determined by Hamas.
The purpose of the research is that, by comparison, we can extract the lessons learned from the experience of a retreating wave of terrorism generated by ISIS. In this sense, in order to draw attention to some early warning aspects, the elements we propose to be analyzed consist of the transnational character, the new-media impact, directing the energy of massive groups, extremist beliefs and desires for societal change.
