This book presents an in-depth study of thirteen individuals who moved away from terrorist activity in Turkey. Setting their stories in the context of political violence in support of Kurdish independence and the Turkish state's response, the book examines what motivated the individuals to become involved in terrorism, how they participated, why they became disillusioned, and how they coped with disengagement. The book then draws out lessons on how to encourage individuals to move away from terrorism, and on how states can assist. The book is a particularly rich source on why people move away from terrorism as most books concentrate on why people become terrorists, and on terrorist profiling.
