*** It depends on who is the terrorist because for the [[marxisme|marxist]], a lot of them went into university[^2] But, even in the Middle east, **terrorists have on average better education that the global population** On average terrorists are better educated than the general population Why do terrorist organizations tend to select more educated recruits ? Because they need a certain level of consciousness = [[compétence politique]] et [[socialisation politique]] Are people with higher education more likely to mobilize ? Yes it is a bit higher than illiterate people And it is the same for voting = le diplôme est le facteur le plus important pour expliquer l'[[engagement politique]] We can see that illiterate people tend to not justify at all the terrorist attacks however educated and really educated people tend to justify it a bit more In Turkey we can also see that the *more income people have*, the more they tend to justify the attack. [[Alan Krueger|Krueger]] say that the economic argument doesn't work for [[terrorisme|terrorism]] This is supposed to work the same for the vote but we can see that people have other interests and know better the structures. [[Gambetta]] and [[Hertog]] discovered that inside [[Islamisme|islamist]] terrorists are recruited into the engineers One explanation : - because of their technical skills (but this seems to be false) -> leftists groups tend to recruit more people from the humanities whereas right wing and islamist groups tend to recruit more people coming from engineering studies It is because they are really ideologically conservative It depends on the **size of the terrorist group** Beyond a certain size, the additional recruits tend to be **motivated more by pay and less by ideology**. The tend to be people of lower socioeconomic status ## Notes de bas de page ``` dataview TABLE length(file.outlinks) AS "Liens sortants", length(file.inlinks) AS "Liens entrants" WHERE file.path = this.file.path ```
