Abstract(s)
O terrorismo é uma das grandes ameaças do século XXI. O aparecimento da Internet veio potenciar ameaças já existentes como é o caso da radicalização e do terrorismo. A presente investigação pretende oferecer um contributo acerca do processo de radicalização com influência online em jovens. Partindo de uma abordagem qualitativa, procurou-se: identificar os principais mecanismos de radicalização digital apontados por especialistas. Pretende-se também analisar os fatores sociais, emocionais e psicológicos que tornam determinados jovens vulneráveis à radicalização online. Pretende-se ainda examinar os principais tipos de conteúdo digital usados no processo de doutrinação online. Deste modo, procuramos compreender de que forma o aparecimento da Internet redefiniu o processo de radicalização terrorista e quais são as novas estratégias usadas pelos grupos terroristas islâmicos no processo de radicalização online e entender o papel mais específico que as redes sociais desempenham em todo o processo. O estudo, também, considera as vulnerabilidades sociais e psicológicas exploradas por esses grupos, destacando o papel dos algoritmos, da desinformação e da cultura digital na aceleração do processo de radicalização.
Terrorism remains one of the most pressing threats of the 21st century. The rise of the Internet has significantly amplified pre-existing dangers such as radicalization and violent extremism. This research project aims to explore the role of the Internet—particularly social media—in the radicalization of young individuals. Drawing on a qualitative approach with a strong bibliographic component, this study seeks to: Identify the main mechanisms of digital radicalization highlighted by experts. The study also aims to analyze the social, emotional, and psychological factors that make certain young people vulnerable to online radicalization. Furthermore, it seeks to examine the main types of digital content used in the online indoctrination process. Finally, the goal is togather prevention and intervention proposals suggested by specialists. It investigates how the emergence of the Internet has redefined radicalization processes, the evolving strategies employed by Islamist terrorist groups in online recruitment, and the specific functions that social media platforms play in facilitating ideological indoctrination. Furthermore, this study addresses the psychological and social vulnerabilities exploited by extremist narratives, emphasizing the role of algorithmic amplification, misinformation, and digital culture in accelerating the pathway to radicalization.
