520 _aThis paper suggests a number of preventive measures with the intention of contributing to the discussion on counter-radicalisation policies and striking a proper balance between security and democratic values. The first part of the article presents a record of terrorist activity in Italy (violent radicalisation), while the second part features quantitative and qualitative evidence illustrating how violent ideas have permeated certain segments of local Muslim communities (cognitive radicalisation). The third section proposes a number of preventive measures countering radicalisation based on the study's empirical findings. Lastly, the paper concludes with a discussion of the likelihood of Italy becoming a future theatre and incubator of jihad.
