Impara, Elisa (2018) Radicalisation and beheadings: Philosophy of Transgression in terrorist violence. Journal of Theoretical and Philosophical Criminology, 10, pp. 21-33. ISSN (online) 2166-8094
Abstract
The scope of this article is to explore a body of literature that deals with the concepts of transgression, evil and festival to construct an alternative theoretical framework for violence. For the purpose of this work, the radicalisation of western-born young Muslims and so-called Islamic State's executions will be taken into consideration. The works of Bataille, Foucault, De Sade and Caillois will be the primary focus of this article. This article suggests using non-traditional criminological sources to create an alternative narrative, aimed at adding a different dimension to the conversations around radicalisation and beheadings.
