The Centre for Studies in Democratization is organising 'informal discussion group presentations' again in 2010/2011 (all in B0.06). The idea is to present a paper or ideas or thoughts or work in progress, which are all related to the theme of democracy/ democratization, within 15 minutes. The rest of the time (45 minutes) will be spent for discussion and to get feedback from the rest of the group. So, sessions comprise a short presentation followed by discussion, Q and A. Bring your own lunch!

Wednesday, February 9, 12.00-1.00. Salma Belaala (Marie Curie Research Fellow from Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris) "Islamist radicalisation within a pluralist context"

A few days ago, Salma returned from fieldwork in Algeria, under very difficult circumstances, and I am sure she wants to share her recent experiences with you.

Salma is a Marie Curie Research Fellow from the Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris. She is leading a European Commission Project on Violent Islamist Radicalisation, and will be based at Warwick University until October 2012 to work on this project. Her previous work was on Islamist radicalisation in Northern Africa, while her current work is on Islamist radicalisation in Western Europe.
