The violent actions of a few extremists can alter the course of history, yet there persists a yawning gap between the potential impact of these individuals and what we understand about them. In Engineers of Jihad, Diego Gambetta and Steffen Hertog uncover two unexpected facts, which they imaginatively leverage to narrow that gap: they find that a disproportionate share of Islamist radicals come from an engineering background, and that Islamist and right-wing extremism have more in common than either does with left-wing extremism, in which engineers are absent while social scientists and humanities students are prominent. Searching for an explanation, they tackle four general questions about extremism: Under which socioeconomic conditions do people join extremist groups? Does the profile of extremists reflect how they self-select into extremism or how groups recruit them? Does ideology matter in sorting who joins which group? Lastly, is there a mindset susceptible to certain types of extremism? Using rigorous methods and several new datasets, they explain the link between educational discipline and type of radicalism by looking at two key factors: the social mobility (or lack thereof) for engineers in the Muslim world, and a particular mindset seeking order and hierarchy that is found more frequently among engineers. Engineers’ presence in some extremist groups and not others, the authors argue, is a proxy for individual traits that may account for the much larger question of selective recruitment to radical activism. Opening up markedly new perspectives on the motivations of political violence, Engineers of Jihad yields unexpected answers about the nature and emergence of extremism.
如果说《What Makes a Terrorist》在探讨恐怖主义产生的经济原因,那本作则旨在说明教育与极端暴力之间的微妙联系——2015年《最后一公里》集中播放了一批参与“迁徙圣战”的维吾尔人现身说法的报道,特别提到了“文化程度不高”。不过问题在于官方所谓的“文化程度”与具备宗教背景人士的“文化程度”是否是一回事?全球参与恐怖活动的高学历人士越来越多,其本质上是中产对现实不满急于改变现状的极端反映
评分好奇地翻了图表和结论。【从学科看,Jihad的反义词是left wing……?】
评分就工程师在伊斯兰极端组织中占大比例的现象,反驳了两个原因(random selection followed by diffusion 和technical skills),提出两个猜想:1)工科生理性、单一的思维方式,对集权统治、理性治国的诉求。2)过高的期望与现实的落差
评分配着Krueger那本读,风味更佳。开脑洞部分比Krueger厉害。So the gist is that with reduced labor market opportunities, the opportunity cost of becoming a terrorist is lowered equalizes to the (expected in terms of beliefs/ideologies etc) gain, so hence engineers tend to become terrorists..
