Radicalization is theorized as an exclusively Muslim phenomenon

Evidence

While “extremism” is framed in racially and religiously neutral terms, and CVE policing is theoretically focused on all culprits of extremism, it is disproportionately if not entirely focused on “ideas” and behavioral “processes” linked to Islam and expressions of Muslim identity. Radicalization, therefore, is theorized as an exclusively Muslim phenomenon, much like its precedent and related enterprise, terrorism. — Khaled A.
