islamist extremism

Islamistisk ekstremisme betegner en ideologisk retning, der legitimerer eller anvender vold og ulovlige handlinger for at fremme islamistiske politiske eller religiøse mål. I dansk retslig og efterretningsmæssig sammenhæng bruges begrebet om motiveret terror og grov kriminalitet — ikke om almindelig religionsudøvelse.
