In this article, we review the psychology of religion and radicalization. In doing so, we note that both macro-level approaches (that study structural conditions in society) and micro-level approaches (that focus on psychological coping and personal appraisal of individual conditions) fail to adequately explain radical behavior of members of extreme religious groups. Instead, we propose that meso-level approaches best explain religious radicalization. These meso-level approaches explain how members of extreme religious groups appraise societal conditions and find redemption in radical beliefs. In particular, we argue for a more in-depth examination of the historical and societal contexts in which various radicalization processes take place and narratives of radical redemption hold sway.

宗教激进化:社会评价和在极端信仰中寻找激进救赎

在这篇文章中,我们回顾了宗教和激进化的心理。在这样做时,我们注意到宏观层面的方法(研究社会结构条件)和微观层面的方法(侧重于心理应对和个人条件的个人评估)都未能充分解释极端宗教团体成员的激进行为. 相反,我们建议中观层面的方法最能解释宗教激进化。这些中观层面的方法解释了极端宗教团体的成员如何评估社会状况并在激进信仰中找到救赎。特别是,我们主张对发生各种激进化过程和激进救赎叙事占主导地位的历史和社会背景进行更深入的研究。
