What martyr videos tell us
On 16 June Pieter Nanninga will be awarded a PhD for his study of jihadism and suicide attacks. In his thesis, Nanninga describes why suicide attacks play such an important role in the jihadi movement, and in al-Qaeda in particular. It turns out that the outcome of the attack isn't really considered all that important.
The weekly online video magazine Unifocus highlights topics related to the University of Groningen in the fields of research and society, student life, teaching, policy and internationalization.
