This book presents an in-depth analysis of how statutory and third sector organisations have faced the challenge of dealing with former 'terrorists'.Offering a theoretically robust, empirically rich account of work with ex-prisoners and those considered 'at risk' of involvement in extremism in the United Kingdom, Marsden dissects the problemsgovernments are facing in dealing with the effects of 'radicalisation'.Increasingly, governments are struggling with the challenge of dealing with those who have become involved in extremism, and yet, comparatively little is known about how and why people renounce violence. Nor are existing efforts to 'deradicalise' extremists well understood.
