This chapter explores systemic counselling as an intervention for deradicalisation, emphasizing the importance of understanding explanatory models of ‘Islamism’ across different system levels, from individual to societal. It highlights a novel insight that all models share a common element: the frustration of basic human needs, which can explain the turn to extremism as a logical solution. Recognizing these needs enhances counselling effectiveness and supports targeted disengagement strategies. The chapter integrates explanatory models with the concept of unmet needs, demonstrating their relevance for systemic counselling practice.

摘要

This chapter explores systemic counselling as an intervention for deradicalisation, emphasizing the importance of understanding explanatory models of ‘Islamism’ across different system levels, from individual to societal. It highlights a novel insight that all models share a common element: the frustration of basic human needs, which can explain the turn to extremism as a logical solution. Recognizing these needs enhances counselling effectiveness and supports targeted disengagement strategies. The chapter integrates explanatory models with the concept of unmet needs, demonstrating their relevance for systemic counselling practice. Concluding insights are provided to guide practical application in deradicalisation efforts.
