%T Conclusion: The Failure of Jihadism Within the Millennials
%X The vulnerability of Indonesian youth, especially students, to radicalism, 
extremism and terrorism is closely related to their uncertainty in dealing with 
structural problems and the future. The expansion of communication technology 
triggered by the rise of of the internet has collapsed spatial and social distances, 
which eventually increases their uncertainty. The impact of this change is 
obviously felt by the millennial generation. Born in the last 25 years, they grew 
under the dominance of digital culture that intersects closely with the spread of 
instant consumption patterns and lifestyles. This generation is used to simplifying 
the complexity of this world into their easily-clickable smartphones that can find 
practically anything they need. Frustration can be easily encountered when the 
virtual world is often different from the realities they face on day-to-day basis.
