We explore this question by conducting an experimental study in Bosnia --- a European democracy, where, unlike the rest of Europe, Muslims are neither immigrants nor socio-economically disadvantaged. This helps us clearly identify the radicalization potential of Western rhetoric alone, absent contextual factors such as social inferiority. Experimental evidence with Bosnian Muslims from five surveys (with a total N=2,608) suggests that rhetorical attacks on Islam by Western politicians do not strengthen individuals' Muslim identity, cause higher levels of animosity toward the West, or lead to condoning the use of violence. We also find that pro-Muslim rhetoric, while increasing positive views of the West, does not affect individuals' strength of Muslim identity or their radical sympathies. These results provide important implications for our understanding of sources of radicalization and for efforts to curb radical tendencies.<a href="http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0">CC0 1.0</a>MergedDataset.tab260826text/tab-separated-valuesUNF:6:eBBKLpUlxUGF50W1AXG3Lw==Dataset of Bosnian survey respondents used for this analysis.Unique ID2.1542243E7.2608.02.12784035E7219838.355096741870.02.1257609719325155E72.0817388E7UNF:6:0z0INVm9chpxupVjzKIlhg==Sample point39.35920723240493476.0139.074.17868098159511.0.0.02608.0888999miss0UNF:6:5OlhX/PDLxCbcX42fE9kow==How important is immigration as an issue for Bosnia?0.7418235082708134899.02.01.86318131256952113.01709.01.0.3Not important at all1941Very important3172Somewhat important388UNF:6:YFBTYqpjUhJLMB/vzU/lpA==The following comment was recently made by a prominent politician in America abo1.00.71703200473389991737.0871.01.8495981630309994.3.02.01Very important2992Somewhat important4043Not important at all168UNF:6:7X/csBx+Wqz/iREnAsYnhg==The following comment was recently made by a prominent politician in America abo1770.0838.00.73259850532060112.0.1.8627684964200483.01.03Not important at all1752Somewhat important3731Very important290UNF:6:LVVsROv4cXeIduHxeJwSrA==Do you have a favorable or unfavorable view of the U.S.?0.499972201250562350.02.01.51111963190183981.02.0.2608.01Favorable12752Unfavorable1333UNF:6:MASDZagboP515FVHlYOaRw==Please tell us whether you agree or disagree with the following statements: Bein2.1537576687116570.0.1.02608.02.05.01.27429864805575631strongly agree11025strongly disagree2173neither agree nor disagree4642somewhat agree6314somewhat disagree194UNF:6:a7L6pG8S/k9Wa7ndLPD6cQ==Please tell us whether you agree or disagree with the following statements: I ca0.05.01.04.0356595092024542608.05.0.1.29820679274662345strongly disagree14833neither agree nor disagree3491strongly agree1612somewhat agree2794somewhat disagree336UNF:6:x0e1Vs/KVAETFisoi9PFhQ==Gender2608.02.02.01.0.1.5463957055214720.49793825770813110.01Male11832Female1425UNF:6:k9SQsoflUxUdj7TV3rtT0g==Age46.1690950920245346.093.018.333487767223595.0.018.02608.0888999miss0UNF:6:FNQkK5S9YBeFH0Rgq6CtKA==Education2.01.8696319018404906.0.6123880471575353.01.02608.00.01Primary school6813University3412Secondary school1586UNF:6:mj/2qAe0aR+8IbaQjDBCog==Nationality1.01.01.01.02608.00.00.0.4Bosnian01Bosniac26082Croat0888998DK/NA03Serb05Others0UNF:6:71Luc4o/Hi+8pegNUFFJ1A==Working status5.0115785.46529485297888997.0.1.015344.3201687117540.02608.08Retired6397Pupil/Student2142Owner of own business -
