Radicalisation has become an important issue for the Kyrgyz Republic with an increasing number of individuals leaving the country for conflict zones. The government of the Kyrgyz Republic adopted a number of policies to prevent radicalisation and violent extremism among youth. One of these measures is piloting a new subject, titled, History of Religious Culture, (История религиозной культуры) in public schools. The analysis in this paper aims to explore the experiences of teachers, who have taught the new class. The article also examines any differences in the level of resilience of pupils in schools, piloting and not piloting the new subject, towards radicalisation and violent extremism. Data used in this article comes from a survey with 760 adolescents across public schools in six regions of the country and key informant interviews with teachers who have taught the new class. Qualitative findings showed a positive experience of teachers who reported expanding their pupils' and their own knowledge of various religions. Quantitative findings indicate that the new class, History of Religious Culture, may have had a positive impact on violence-related beliefs in pilot schools that reported views less supportive of violence. The study concludes that the government's response to radicalisation and violent extremism has expanded beyond a security approach by including education. This, however, poses a risk of securitising education.

This study seeks to examine how the West, particularly United States (US), influences the narratives about terrorism, radicalism, and combating violent extremism (CVE) in Muslim majority nations such as Malaysia. We contend that some local institutions and researchers in Malaysia may have assumed the Faustian bargain by agreeing with the Western narrative that Islam's teachings promote violence and extremism in order to meet the demands of survival, whether it be funding for everyday operations or meeting the demands of universities or research institutions to sustain themselves and meet their performance indicators. We conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) from 2001 to 2021 and used Foucauldian Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to understand the role of the US in purposefully supporting workshops and research activities of particular institutions with the intent to influence national discourse on securitization and prospective policy implications. More importantly, we wish to alert Malaysian policymakers to pay particular attention and scrutinize ongoing programs such as the "Building Community Resilience" as these may inadvertently foster Islamophobia.

이 연구는 인도네시아 이슬람 극단주의 역사와 최근의 인도네시아의 국제 이슬람 극단주의의 확산 실태를 조사한다. 이 연구의 수행을 위해서는 인도네시아 이슬람 극단주의 관련 문헌조사와 관련자들의 질적 인터뷰를 병행한다. 문헌조사를 위해서는 미디어 보도, 관련 연구 보고서와 논문 등을 수집하고 활용한다. 질적 인터뷰를 위해서는 국내체류 인도네시아 학생들과 체류자들, 인도네시아인과 결혼한 한국인 배우자들, 인도네시아 현지에서 활동하는 한국인 선교사들 등을 포함한다. 이들에 대한 질적 인터뷰는 30분에서 2시간에 걸쳐 진행되었다. 연구대상의 모집단을 사실상 특정화 할 수 없으며 연구주제의 성격상 인터뷰 대상에 접근이 용이하지 않았기 때문에 편의 샘플과 눈덩이 샘플 추출 방식을 활용하였다. 연구결과에 따르면, 인도네시아의 이슬람 극단주의는 뿌리가 깊고 일반적으로 아프가니스탄, 파키스탄, 이집트, 사우디아라비아 등과 같이 이슬람 극단주의가 공고히 뿌리를 내리고 있는 다른 무슬림 국가들과 유사한 역사적 경험을 공유한다. 즉, 서방 제국주의에 대한 반작용으로 이슬람 원리주의가 시작되었으며, 독립이후 근대국가 발전과정에서 소외되었고 소련-아프간 전쟁을 거치며 극단화 폭력화 하는 과정을 거쳤다. 또한 9.11테러 이후 국제적 이슬람 극단주의 네트워크와 연결되어 글로벌 지하드에 편입되는 발전경로를 보여준다. 이러한 역사적 발전 궤적은 인도네시아의 이슬람 극단주의가 상당히 조직적이고 공고하다는 것을 알려준다. 한편, 최근 들어 IS와 알카에다 등의 국제 이슬람 극단주의 세력의 동아시아 확장전략에 따라 인도네시아로의 침투와 확장이 관찰된다. 이는 특히 인도네시아의 소외되고 낙후한 시골지역에서 보다 뚜렷이 관찰된다. 이러한 인도네시아에서의 국제 이슬람 극단주의 세력의 확산은 지리적 근접성, 국내 상당규모의 이주자 공동체의 존재 등의 사실을 고려할 때 직접적으로 우리 국가에 위협을 미치게 될 것이다. 이러한 맥락에서 인도네시아 내에서의 이슬람 극단주의 확산 동향에 대한 주의와 관심은 시기적으로 매우 필요하다고 볼 수 있다.
