“Jihadist Iniltration of Migrant Flows to Europe is a very timely book that deals with a highly relevant question and demonstrates how one could approach such complex issues with a research design that combines quantitative and qualitative elements alike. It is however – as mentioned before – highly specialized literature, that will most likely be relevant first and foremost for practitioners and researchers dealing with the concrete topic.” (Paul Schliefsteiner, JIPSS Journal for Intelligence, Propaganda and Security Studies, Vol. 12 (2), 2018)
