Inequality and radicalisation: Assessing the research evidence
The role of economic and socio-political inequality in terrorism and radicalization: A systematic review The current state of knowledge base about the inequality-radicalisation relationship can be described by inconsistent empirical results, accompanied by the diversity of inequality and radicalisation conceptualizations and methodological approaches. This review analysed existing quantitative findings about inequality-radicalization relationship with the aim of enhancing understanding of the role of inequality in radicalization on individual and macro level. The literature search encompassed searching seven electronic databases, hand searching and a grey literature search. A total of 141 publications met the inclusion criteria (empirical studies, published in English from 2001 to 2017, relevant for inequality and radicalisation): 84 examining inequality-terrorism relation on macro-level, 42 based on surveys of non-radicalised individuals and 15 analysing biographical evidence on radicalised individuals. The review indicates an inconsistent and complex relationship between inequality and radicalisation. However, the socio-political inequality, especially in terms of abuse of human rights and repression at a macro level, or perceived social inequality at an individual level, seems to be more consistently related to terrorism/radicalization than economic inequality. Besides the importance of type and dimension of inequality (economic or social- political, objective or subjective inequality), findings also suggest possible importance of type and ideological nature of radicalisation (cognitive or behavioural ; Islamist or far- right) or type of terrorism (domestic or international) as well as the general social/political/demographic context (e.g. countries). The findings of the review are discussed in terms of evidence gaps, action points for future studies and possible political psychology contributions to investigating inequality-radicalization relationship.
