I agree. However, one problem of „contextualisation“ is which theories & methods are used to define causes for terrorism. And very often it seems to me that there are very simplistic ideas of causality circulating on campus that are more interested in claim-making and less in scientific explanation
In my understanding, it’s exactly oversimplification (instead of careful examination) that @pagefortna.bsky.social criticizes
