“The great majority [of Islamic fundamentalist political, cultural and religious groups] don’t condone violence. They’re instead reacting against the west and western colonisation and westernisation and globalisation by reasserting their own Islamic identity.”

Join Department of Security Studies and Criminology senior lecturer Dr Julian Droogan in the latest Pioneering Minds podcast to hear him discuss some of the most pertinent issues of our time.

Dr Droogan covers Islamic State’s motivations, the current state of Australia’s border protection, and how the tension in the South China Sea may affect our national security.
