    Abstract

    Responding to violent extremism is a national effort and the role of the state becomes critical. This is a study of four Southeast Asian states (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore) which have responded to violent extremism in their respective countries. Violent extremism in this study refers to the violent religious (Islamic) extremist actions which took place in recent years. The focus is to examine the state’s capacity to respond to violent extremism, thereby revealing the similarities and differences of the responses and relations to the state’s success.
