Evolving Trends in the Youth Radicalisation Landscape in Southeast Asia

Ever since the September 11 2001 terror attacks by Al Qaeda in the United States, the major transnational terrorism threat in Southeast Asia has been fuelled by violent Islamist ideology. Certainly, since the mid-2010s and with the emergence of the Islamic State (IS) as a major online vector of radicalisation, the phenomenon of youth radicalisation has become a significant threat in the region and certainly in Singapore.

I am a Departmental Lecturer in International Relations and an Associate Member at St Antony’s College. My research examines how access to finance shapes politics, across the field of political economy. I study this through two lines of work: how citizens navigate economic security amid growing financial exposure, through pensions, housing, and government transfers, and how governments and firms navigate global capital markets to pursue political goals, from sovereign green bonds to restrictions on foreign investment.
