Dr. Chernov Hwang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science and International Relations at Goucher College. She received her PhD in 2007 from the University of Colorado-Boulder. Her research focuses on how social networks facilitate entry into and exit from jihadist groups in Southeast Asia. She analyzes the processes and pathways via which individuals join and become active in Islamist extremist groups; what motivates inter-group switching; how jihadists disengage from violence and the various permutations of disengagement; and what factors enable successful reintegration and deradicalization. Prior to embarking on this research trajectory, her research centered on Islamist party behavior and state-Islamist group relations. Further information is available here. Her presentation will be drawn from her recent book published by Cornell University Press, Why Terrorists Quit: The Disengagement of Indonesian Jihadists.
