| "The terms 'Islamism' 'Salafism' and 'Jihadism' have acquired common currency in recent years often being interchanged and applied to describe various forms of Muslim religiosity considered undesirable But what do these terms mean? Why do Muslim religious conservatism and radicalisation appear to be on the rise in the UK? And what long-term impact could this have on British society?
