Færre radikaliserede gennem en effektiv og sammenhængende indsats:Anbefalinger fra ekspertgruppen til forebyggelse af radikalisering
No full textLæs anbefalinger fra Ekspertgruppen til forebyggelse af radikalisering.Ekspertgruppen anbefaler bl.a. mere dialog med religiøse miljøer.Med den internationalt anerkendte svenske terrorforsker Magnus Ranstorp i spidsen lancerer Ekspertgruppen til forebyggelse af radikalisering sine anbefalinger. Ekspertgruppen kommer med 15 hovedanbefalinger. Blandt andet anbefaler de et styrket samarbejde og koordinering mellem myndighederne, en rød tråd i forebyggelsen og mere dialog og samarbejde med private organisationer og foreninger."Vi anbefaler, at man i København får skabt et større samarbejde mellem myndighederne og får samlet repræsentanter fra dem i én enhed, så man sikrer, at ingen forsvinder ud af systemet. Der er ingen enkelt løsning på radikalisering. Det kræver en bredspektret indsats, hvor man samarbejder med både offentlige og private organisationer og foreninger", siger formand for ekspertgruppen, Magnus Ranstorp, som til daglig er forskningsleder på Försvarshögskolan i Stockholm. Han roser samtidig København for at gå foran."Med denne rapport er København den første storby til at præsentere en samlet indsats mod radikalisering. Det giver København et afsæt for at blive førende på området", siger Magnus Ranstorp.Det sidste halve år har Københavns Kommune fået næsten lige så mange bekymringshenvendelser som hele sidste år. 49 henvendelser er der kommet ind i årets første seks måneder mod 60 henvendelser sidste år. Det er en udfordring, som kommunen skal blive bedre til at håndtere. Derfor er beskæftigelses- og integrationsborgmester Anna Mee Allerslev glad for, at ekspertgruppen har tænkt ud af boksen og kommet med mange forskellige anbefalinger. Både konkrete indsatser og forslag som styrker samarbejdet mellem myndigheder."Det er en bekymrende udvikling, at der er unge mennesker, der bliver forsøgt hjernevasket. Her er det afgørende, at vi bliver bedre til at hjælpe de unge og deres familier. Men samtidig skal vi være klar til at skride ind, hvis hjælpen ikke fungerer", siger beskæftigelses- og integrationsborgmester Anna Mee Allerslev.En af rapportens anbefalinger er, at der skal oprettes en koordineringsenhed, hvor alle relevante myndigheder sætter sig ned ved samme bord og koordinerer deres indsats."Vi skal sikre en radikaliseringsindsats, hvor vi får skabt et fintmasket net mellem myndighederne. Vi må ikke lade en ung, der er truet af radikalisering, i stikken, fordi de offentlige instanser ikke kommunikerer - eller ikke har styr på, hvem der følger op på sagen. Derfor skal vi styrke samarbejdet mellem kommunale myndigheder, kriminalforsorgen og politiet", siger Anna Mee Allerslev.Men ifølge ekspertgruppen vil en del af forebyggelsen også kræve et samarbejde med organisationer og religiøse miljøer."Jeg mener, at vi skal have tættere samarbejde med private organisationer, og det gælder også religiøse organisationer. Fx mener jeg, at vi skal samarbejde mere med demokratiske muslimske organisationer og moskeer. For lige meget, hvilken gruppe vi samarbejder med, så skal kravet være, at det er mennesker, der går ind for demokrati og de demokratiske værdier", siger Anna Mee Allerslev
Destruction and redemption : the conduct of revealed religious violence in the contemporary era
No full textThe final
quarter of the twentieth century saw the emergence of a variety of
security threats, perhaps the most pernicious and
least
understood of which
has been the
rise of religiously motivated violence and terrorism. While
a great
deal has been
written on
this phenomenon, much
has been in the form
of
individual
case studies and those more
inclusive
examinations which
have been
offered
deal
more with the causes of religious
violence and not the underlying processes of
justification
and operational activity.
In
cases
where such an approach
has been
attempted these have been
conducted
in
a cursory
fashion,
presenting generalisations which are not necessarily valid across the entire
spectrum of religious violence.
The
purpose of this thesis is to offer a
holistic
examination
of violence within the three revealed religions
(Judaism, Christianity
and
Islam) in
order to
establish common
features in the conduct of violence across the faiths
and to provide a
framework
whereby the ideological
and operational processes and mechanisms can
be
understood collectively rather than individually. In the process, a number of commonly
accepted generalisations regarding religiously motivated violence will
be
modified or
challenged.
The
method chosen consists of the identification
of a number of
key
components common to all revealed violent groups, ranging
from the formation
of an
ideology
which
justifies
violence to the tactics that are employed, and these key
components are then used to examine the behaviour
of three distinct
group types. The
three group types are represented by ten case studies, chosen to reflect the variety of group
types that have
existed and continue to exist.
The
objective
is to present a
broad
framework
which will enable a greater understanding of
how
religiously motivated
violence
is justified both to internal
and external audiences, the manner
in
which this
violence
is
expressed operationally, and the degree to which the course and trajectory of
group violence may
be
anticipated
Political imagination and the struggle for power : Algerian Islamism as a case study
No full textThis dissertation is
concerned with the case study of
Algerian
political
Islam in the contemporary era.
The
central research
question addressed
here is two fold. First, the question of whether
political
Islam
constitutes a radical
ideological break
with the
Algerian
political
ljfeworld is
asked.
The
political
imagination
of
Algerian Islamism is
analysed
in its historical
and political contexts
to unearth areas of rupture with
dominant forms
of political
imagination, but
areas of
hybridity
and of complicity with such
formations
are also
highlighted. Thus, the main contention of this
thesis is that the discursive
relationship
between Islamist
political
formation
and that of their opponents
in the political sphere
is
complex:
Islamist political
imagination is
oppositional to the state,
but it does
not escape the discursive tools for legitimation
present
in
the existing
ljfeworld. Secondly, the consequences of this argument
for
our understanding of the Algerian Civil War
of the 199os are
addressed.
It is
argued
here that political
imagination is
one of the
key loci
where political contest
has been
played out
in the
contemporary
Algerian
setting.
The
confrontation
between the
regime and political Islam is the most up to date
example of a
struggle
for
power that necessitates the monopoly over the
legitimising tools of
history
and culture.
More importantly, this
framework
questions the notion that the state-Islamist confrontation
in
subsequent years can
be
explained
in
a
binary fashion (Good
vs.
Evil; Rational
politics vs. Irrational theocracy). In fact, this
confrontation over political power
is
consistent with existing
patterns of political competition
in
postcolonial
Algeria
