| Description: |
Efforts to counter terrorism are drawing increasingly on community-based initiatives and a partnership between police officers and members of specific social groups. This book analyses the potential of these initiatives and the role played by factors such as community engagement, gender and religion, and the tensions that these create. |
| Synopsis: |
This book examines community-based approaches to counter-terrorism through an analysis of the notions of community, partnership, engagement, gender and religion in order to shed new light on the potential of, and drawbacks to these approaches. Dr. Spalek stresses the need for policy makers and practitioners to reflect on the effectiveness of the initiatives that they are engaged with, particularly in relation to how community-targeted or community-focused they are. |
