This week on Combating Jihadist Terror, Dr Anthony Richards talks to Professor Maria Sobolewska about radicalisation and the new era of the culture wars, how young Muslim Britons are being pushed into extremism by alienation from society and her hopes about the decline in interest in such identity politics as Brexit recedes from memory.
Professor Sobolewska is Professor of Political Science at the University of Manchester and focuses her work on the representation and integration of immigrants and ethic minorities. Her latest book Brexitland, co authored with Robert Ford is available here.
