ANNOTATION: Anyone involved with the challenges inherent in prison radicalization needs to read this report. Five chapters present a look at an issue, the practice, and recommendations related to: prison regimes for terrorists; prison radicalization; collective de-radicalization and disengagement; and individual de-radicalization and disengagement. A few findings from this publication include: facilities that are overcrowded, short of staff, and managed ineffectively can lead to an environment that fosters the growth of radicalization; de-radicalization and disengagement programs are one tool in a larger arsenal of strategies to combat prison radicalization; and radicalization is not the same thing as religious conversion.
