Résumé

This Doctoral Thesis is based on the strategies and tactics use byt Jihadism in Europe. It comprises the violent radicalisation processes on young Muslisms immigrant, including sec-ond and third generation immigrant during the period of time from 2004 to 2015. It will inves-tigate what factors influence and contribute to urge to young Muslims to take part into a process of recruitment, radicalization and ideologization for the jihad against the West, by groups such as Al Qaeda, Daesh or others dispersed groups of the terrorist network.Individual, social, family and economic factors are examined. Among these factors are: ignorance or dissolution of their cultural, religious and ritual traditions; an absence of a solid individual or community identity; experiences of social stigma, educational, labor or political discrimination; and, finally, economic inequality. These factors not only define their character and performance of an individual but also how these networks work.This research has been carry out in the Communities of Madrid and Catalonia. It is based on scholar bibliography, interviews and consultants with academic, police and intelli-gence experts along with public care and social services workers, and finally, Muslim repre-sentatives. They all pointed out these previous factors and also the necessity of policies in Europe in order to reduce the impact of these factors among the most vulnerable sectors of the population. Addressing this issue in a systematic way, delimiting the problem and trying to envision possible institutional actions is the main objective of this work.
