Summary/Abstract: The text is focussed on the results of restrictive measures of the Bulgarian state aiming at avoiding ‘Islamic threat’ . The dynamic of the attitudes and the degrees of socialization of the society of Gipsy Salafi in the town of Pazardzhik are followed. For 8 year in the town court cases have been held popularly denoted as ‘cases for radical Islam’. The conclusion of the author based on several years of qualitative and quantitative research demonstrate that there is direct dependence between the religious zeal and increase in its external attributes on one side and the degree of pressure which is systematically implemented by the state and society upon this society on the other side. The strong religiosity does not favour (up to now) extreme behaviour but it would not be stated with certainty that this tendency would be valid in the future for the next generations. It would not be excluded that part of them would be radicalized, but the basis for such behaviour would be not religious but social one.
