Breaking the Cycle: Neurocriminology and The Future of Terrorism Deradicalization in Indonesia

Author(s) Dr. Leebarty Taskarina
Country Indonesia
Abstract This article explores neurocriminology as a new interdisciplinary approach to understanding crime, punishment, and recidivism, with a focus on terrorism and deradicalization in Indonesia. It relies on Andrea L. Glenn and Adrian Raine's work (2014) as a theoretical basis. The paper places their neurocriminological perspective within Indonesia's social-science-based criminology tradition. A review of existing literature highlights a significant gap between global progress in neurocriminology and its limited development and use in Indonesia. The analysis suggests that combining neuroscientific and biosocial insights could enhance our understanding of criminal behavior. As a result, there is potential to improve deradicalization efforts through better risk assessment, targeted interventions, and the prevention of terrorist recidivism. The goal of this article is to introduce a more comprehensive framework for deradicalization policies in Indonesia, reshaping the country's approach to crime and terrorism while strengthening theoretical foundations for evidence-based policymaking.
