Watch Professor Hoffman's lecture on "Recruitment and Radicalization: Terrorist Profiles"
Professor Hoffman delves into the conditions that make a person more likely to turn towards terrorism as a way to achieve political and social change. I have provided examples and addressed the following questions:
Why do people become terrorists?
What is the process that results in an individual's radicalization and then recruitment?
How do terrorists justify the violence they commit?
Why is it so difficult, if not impossible, to develop a common set of reasons why someone becomes a terrorist?
