Jaime Flaquer García identifies social media as the primary site of radicalization

religious dialogue Islam radicalization social media religious freedom

Jaime Flaquer García, a Jesuit priest and researcher specializing in Islam and interreligious dialogue, asserts that social media is the primary site of radicalization rather than mosques.

Addressing the controversy surrounding a proposed religious center in Polígono Sur, García argues that labels such as ‘macro-mosque’ or ‘Islamization center’ are intended to incite alarmism. He notes that the Muslim community involved in the project already operates a small place of worship and suggests that visibility for diverse religious realities helps facilitate social normalization.
