Childhood innocence?: Mapping trends in teenage terrorism offenders
No full textRecent years have seen a sharp rise in cases of “homegrown” teenage attack-plotters, self-initiated travellers to terrorist-held territory, and bedroom propagandists. The consequences of minors’ involvement in terrorism raises important questions regarding the nature of extremist engagement and the risk posed by young people.Through a unique dataset of minors convicted of terrorism offences in the United Kingdom between 2016 and 2023, this research maps trends in minors’ ideological affiliations; offences, pleas, and sentences; and social circumstances and networks. These cases provide vital insight into the roles played by young people in extremist ecosystems and their radicalisation pathways. In an era of rising extremist youth activism, greater understanding and better response planning should be a priority for counter-terrorism scholars and practitioners
Firm convictions?: unpicking framings of child terrorism offenders
No full textNo longer confined to conflict theatres nor the periphery of adult-led organisations, recent years have seen a sharp rise in domestic cases of independent teenage attack-plotters, self-initiated travellers to terrorist-held territory, and digital extremist content creators. Despite this trend in organic, self-directed offending, children’s motivations for terrorist engagement are frequently exceptionalised through narrative frames that either over- or under-emphasise their agency. Through analysis of an original dataset of 43 minors convicted of terrorism offences in England and Wales since 2016, this article examines how children are understood as subjects in their offending, and how framings problematise their capacity for independent, rational, and agentic terroristic motivation. Focus is placed on the construction and framing of motivations through analysis of the established “mitigating” and “aggravating” factors considered in their judicial proceedings: maturity, ideological commitment, thrill-seeking, unintentionality, socialisation, and adverse childhood experiences and neurodiversity. The article argues for more nuanced understanding (and reporting) of child terrorism-related activities that take a holistic, individualised, and youth-centred approach to questions of agency, subjecthood, and capacity in their motivations

The childhood innocence project
No full textThe Childhood Innocence Project compiles the first cross-ideological dataset of minors convicted of terrorism offences in England and Wales since 2016. It captures minors’ demographics; ideological affiliations; offences, pleas, and sentences; and connections with co-defendants. The dataset aims to give researchers, practitioners, and policymakers access and insight into the roles played by young people in extremist ecosystems and their radicalisation pathways.
The current wave of child engagement in terrorism in England and Wales shows no sign of slowing down. Therefore, the authors will continue to update the dataset as a ‘live’ resource as and when new cases are confirmed. </span
Hannah Arendt – Critical Lives: Hannah Arendt – Critical Lives
No full textThe steady rise in popularity of Hannah Arendt’s work and her exceptionally eventful life make it surprising that Reaktion Books have only recently added a biography of Arendt to their Critical Lives series. This series explores the life and work of leading cultural figures of the modern period and already counts over a hundred biographies of artists, writers and philosophers. The author, Samantha Rose Hill, is well placed to now add a biography of Hannah Arendt. She worked as the assistant director of the Hannah Arendt Center for Politics and Humanities at Bard College and as associate professor at the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research. The fact that Hill has extensive experience in discussing Arendt is evident from the book. She manages to translate Arendt’s complex and wide-ranging ideas into an accessible and very readable bookSamantha Rose Hill: Hannah Arendt, London: Reaktion Books, 2021, 232 p.

Hannah Arendt: "The Human Condition" and the single thought
No full textopenPartendo dalla biografia della filosofa Hannah Arendt e dalla sua esperienza in quanto ebrea durante la seconda guerra mondiale, verrà fatta un’analisi del processo ad Eichmann come esempio di male banale che si insinua nella società laddove manca una coscienza politica. In ultimo, riprendendo lo scopo dell’opera di Hannah Arendt “Vita Activa”, verrà descritta l’importanza di un esercizio della politica continuo e attivo per contrastare il cosiddetto pensiero unico che, secondo l’autrice stessa, ha portato al sopravvento dei totalitarismi del secolo scorso.Starting from the biography of the philosopher Hannah Arendt and her experience as a Jew during the Second World War, an analysis of the Eichmann trial will be made as an example of banal evil that insinuates itself into society where there is no political conscience. Finally, taking up the purpose of Hannah Arendt's work "The Human Condition", the importance of a continuous and active exercise of politics will be described to counter the so-called single thought that, according to the author herself, led to the prevalence of the totalitarianisms of the last century
The light of the eye : doctrine, piety and reform in the works of Thomas Sherlock, Hannah More and Jane Austen
No full textBibliography: leaves 376-401.This thesis investigates the ways in which three eighteenth-century writers, Bishop Thomas Sherlock, Hannah More and Jane Austen embody orthodox Anglican doctrine according to their individual perceptions of the enlightening properties of Protestant Christianity. After situating them in their respective gender, literary and ecclesiastical contexts, I examine some of their key doctrines and analyse excerpts from their works. My selection of passages from Sherlock's works is fairly comprehensive, but in the case of More and Austen, where there is already a formidable body of literary criticism, it is more selective. Thus, I focus on doctrine in More's tracts, Strictures on the System of Female Education, An Essay on St Paul and most especially Coelebs in Search of a Wife and in the case of Austen, on her prayers and select passages from Sense and Sensibility and Mansfield Park. I conclude that, although diverse in their particular kind of Anglicanism (High, Evangelical and Median) and in their choice of genre, transparency or obscurity (anonymity and pseudonymity) and the various narratological strategies some of them invoke to circumvent certain taboos, Sherlock, More and Austen champion the same central orthodox doctrines, defend them against current alternatives to orthodoxy such as Latitudinarianism, Deism and various forms of Freethinking, and promote similar moral and ecclesiastical reforms. However, indirectly (through female characters who resist male representation or control) the women writers subject their ostensibly authorially-endorsed male narrators/characters to scrutiny and sometimes (when the males objectify the women) subversion
