Finally getting back to the terrorism studies starter kit, now that the semester has wound down. On this #scholarsunday, I'm highlighting some fantastic scholars working on organizational behavior, ideology, sub-cultures, & foreign fighters. @womenalsoknow #academictwitter 1/7
Again, this is a starter kit. It's not meant to be exhaustive. It's also work pitched at the upper level undergrad in college. Please feel free to add any scholars that you see missing, especially women, BIPOC, in-region/of region scholars. 2/7
For those interested in extremist sub-cultures, these scholars are a wonderful start.
