The introductory chapter presents the key arguments of the book, suggesting that the current scholarship on individual disengagement fails to adequately conceptualize the phenomenon. With the bulk of existing studies on disengagement focused on demobilization, disarmament, and reintegration, individual pathways to exiting militant organizations remain underexplored. This chapter also provides a detailed explanation of the methods and data employed throughout the book.
