Peter Neumann and Alexander Meleagrou-Hitchens were featured in the Home Affairs Committee of the British House of Commons report on “The Roots of Violent Radicalisation.”  Based on nine months of hearings, site visits and numerous written submissions, the report provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments and trends.
