Assignment instructions HEM350d:

Discussion: Describe how socialization and radicalization into violent extremist movements constitute social processes.

With the increasing amounts of radicalized people around the world, procedures to counteract or disrupt these efforts are now in place. Specifically, those avenues that reach people via the Internet and social media. With so many young people and others with no direction in their lives, the virtual world is an anonymous and safe venue in which they may retreat. Unfortunately, that also means a metaphorical feeding ground for predators who use this milieu to recruit and radicalize them.

Question: Based upon your readings and your own research, describe at least two (2) methods that may be used to counteract or disrupt the radicalization process of potential terrorists. Explain your answer in full, using citations and references, as needed.
