Scientific event

During a raid, the police arrest Kylian and make an unexpected discovery of an arsenal and a chilling plot: the attack on French soil of dozens of mosques, restaurants, and politicians. This terrorist project reveals, in hindsight, the trajectory of an isolated young man, sucked into the most radical spheres of the far-right.
As a sociologist and specialist in radicalization processes, Elyamine Settoul decides to investigate and meets Kylian in prison.
From their exchanges is born an unprecedented, rigorous, and intimate narrative that retraces the journey of an individual, and with him of a group, toward violence. The author uncovers the personal, family, and social drivers of this drift. The ideologies, networks, and identity-based discourses fueling this hatred draw notably from an unhealed colonial memory, reviving fractures of the past to justify the violence of the present.
A striking dual plunge into the tensions of French society, and into the twists and turns of a far-right galaxy that remains far too misunderstood.
