Summary:This book will focus on the radicalisation of first to third generation immigrants in Europe into violent belief systems compatible with the use of the most extreme form of volence.

The third focus will be on the problem of integration, with particular reference to the relationship of young people with an immigrant heritage to society as a whole.
