Abstract
In the final chapter we will apply our framework to analyze and explain in a compact manner real-life ideological conflicts that happened in the past. We will first consider the socioeconomic and political conditions in a country that may deprive individuals from resources and opportunities to serve their human needs. Next, we focus on a group or organization and its leader, who disseminates particular beliefs and narratives to address the deprived needs of individuals. Here we shortly portray the ideology and the goals of the organization, and move on, in the next step, to its recruitment and mobilization techniques. This approach allows us to explain within each case how radical organizations were able to address the needs, emotions, and desires of the deprived.
