- Double-weighted statement
- This monograph merits double-weighting on the grounds of the scale and scope of the output, critical insight drawn from extended research and because it presents a lengthy, multi-layered investigation. The book is the first, full-length, fully-theorised account of the politics of Prevent in the UK. It presents three year’s research encompassing archival research and wide-ranging interviews with senior politicians and key figures in UK counter-radicalisation policy. The analysis of the production and policing of British identity that lies at the heart of Prevent is richly theoretically informed and draws on wide-ranging engagement in debates within critical security and terrorism studies.
