Abstract
Radicalization is a universal phenomenon with all its forms and manifestations encompassing entire spectrum of human behaviours and their resultant outcomes in different situations. Not as simplistic as it ostensibly seems, radicalization is a complex process as it can be manifested in various forms i.e. from non-violent to violent. The process of radicalization leading to violence follows a nonlinear, non-predetermined path, shaped by multiple factors—personal and collective, social and psychological. Due to multiple factors, Pakistan has been facing the menace of radicalization for long time especially after the US invasion in Afghanistan after 9/11 incident. Despite all efforts, Pakistan failed in de- radicalization process. It is established fact that the divergent educational systems in Pakistan are one of the major reasons of radicalization. This paper focuses on how education can be used as remedial tool to get rid of the menace of radicalization.
