Drawing on interviews with those at the heart of Prevent’s development, the book provides readers with an in-depth history and conceptualisation of the policy. The book demonstrates that Prevent is an ambitious new way of thinking about violence that has led to the creation of a \u003ci\u003eradical new role\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003efor the state\u003c\/i\u003e: tackling vulnerability to radicalisation. Detailing the history of the policy, and the concepts and practices that have been developed within Prevent, this book critically engages with the assumptions on which they are based and the forms of power they mobilise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e'The author provides an original analysis of this strategy and its consequences on society through a critical and post-structuralist framework, which greatly complements the existing Critical Terrorism Studies’ literature on the subject....Martin’s work represents, therefore, an important analysis not only for scholars researching and deconstructing Prevent and the CONTEST strategy in the UK. It will also be of interest for those inquiring into the consequences on society of counter-radicalisation strategies and of other measures implemented in the name of security, and on how these impact and shape societies and participation in political life. Counter-radicalisation policy and the securing of British identity is thus an important and original contribution to  Critical) Terrorism Studies' and (Critical) Security Studies and, more broadly, to disciplines such as International Relations, Criminology and Sociology.'\u003cbr\u003eAlice Martini, \u003ci\u003eCritical Studies on Terrorism\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e -- .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e1 The (problematic) history of Prevent\u003cbr\u003e2 The ‘separatist’ literature on Prevent (and the way forward)\u003cbr\u003e3 The temporal ambition of Prevent: stopping people becoming terrorists\u003cbr\u003e4 Crossing the temporal gap: vulnerability, extremism and the ordering of identities\u003cbr\u003e5 Governing threatening environments: community cohesion and problem institutions\u003cbr\u003e6 The Channel project: identifying individuals who are vulnerable to radicalisation\u003cbr\u003e7 The identity politics of Prevent\u003cbr\u003eConclusion\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041021428055,"sku":"9781526156112","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781526156112.jpg?v=1750948633","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/counter-radicalisation-policy-and-the-securing-of-british-identity-the-politics-of-prevent-9781526156112","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
