This is the first ethnographic study of al-Muhajiroun, a European activist network implicated in terrorist attacks and sending fighters to the Islamic State. Drawing on extensive field research, the author explores the motives of young Britons who joined al-Muhajiroun, how they radicalized, and the reasons many decided to leave.
Introduction: meeting the Emigrants; 1. Al-Muhajiroun's small-world solution; 2. Joining the Emigrants; 3. A community of true believers; 4. Resilient activism; 5. Leaving al-Muhajiroun; Conclusion: ending the Emigrants.
