De-radicalization


This research work is based on examples of de-radicalization models implemented in different parts of the world: Europe, Southeast Asia, Russia, North America, Horn of Africa and Caucasus

These examples provide an in-depth overview of  strategies adopted by different states, and present the key players in this process according to the context, taking into account the impossibility of establishing a standard model of deradicalization.

The Singapore case study reveals, for example, how religious monitoring is at the heart of the  de-radicalization policy, while the Russian case demonstrates the central role played by the army and law enforcement agencies in parallel with amnesty programs conducted in Chechnya.

The avenues of work and methods of de-radicalization highlighted in this comparative study appear promising and thus make it possible to nourish the reflection of Western societies on this issue.
