  • Hate Crime Impact, Causes & Responses
    hate crime Impact, Causes & Responses second edition Neil Chakraborti & Jon Garland 00_Chakraborti and Garland_Prelims.indd 3 29-Jan-15 2:46:51 PM 8 PERPETRATORS OF HATE CRIME Chapter summary This chapter assesses the profile, motivations and activities of hate crime perpetrators. It debates evidence which suggests that those convicted of hate offences are typi- cally male, from deprived backgrounds and with a history of criminal or violent behaviour, and argues that this portrait may only reveal some of the overall profile of a typical perpetrator of hate. It also examines whether hate acts are really ‘stranger danger’ crimes or whether the offender does, in many cases and at least to some extent, actually know their victim. The chapter also explores cultures of racism that develop in some communities and how these can be born out of frustration at per- ceptions that local minority ethnic groups are receiving preferential treatment. The chapter then examines the success and influence of contemporary far- right groups. It suggests that while members of far-right political parties carry out only a small proportion of hate offences, these may be more severe and premeditated than ‘everyday’ hate crimes. The influence of some of the far right’s ideas on immigration, multiculturalism and religion, and the potency of its symbolism, may also be more far-reaching than many would like to think. Introduction In the wake of the murder of Stephen Lawrence in 1993 much of the academic endeavour in the field of hate crime has focused upon the processes, forms and impact of victimisation, including how victims are treated by the police service and other statutory and voluntary agencies.

  • “Hive” Terrorism: Terrorist Acts Or Nected Network of Individuals and Groups Who Violent Hate Crimes Committed by a Spontane- Reject U.S
    AUTHOR Christian Michelides Police in Vienna separate “Fight Against the Right” and PEGIDA (“Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the Occident”) activists during a February 2015 demonstration. 84 | FEATURES PRISM 6, NO. 1 Right-Wing Extremism and Terrorism in Europe Current Developments and Issues for the Future BY DANIEL KOEHLER urope has experienced a revival of militant right-wing extremist groups, networks, and incidents in recent years, with a surge of anti-immigration and Islamophobic violence, as Ewell as anti-government attacks and assaults on political opponents, ethnic minorities, and homosexuals. Although not as significant as in Europe, the United States has also seen an upsurge in political violence considered to be “right-wing extremist” in nature (for example, white supremacist, neo-Nazi, racist, or anti-government sovereign citizen). For the international audi- ence, only a few of these incidents gained broad media attention; right-wing extremist attacks are seen mostly as isolated events when compared with other attacks, such as those by Islamist extremist terrorists. In Germany, a right-wing terrorist group calling itself the National Socialist Underground was discovered in 2011. Despite having assassinated at least 10 people and com- mitted 2 bombings over the course of almost 14 years, it had gone undetected. That same year, Anders Behring Breivik killed 77 people in a bomb attack in Oslo and a mass shooting in Utøya, Norway. In the United States, white supremacist Michael Page shot and killed six people and wounded four others in an attack against a Wisconsin Sikh temple in August 2012. Only one day after Charles Kurzman had argued in the New York Times that right-wing terrorism might be the most severe security threat in the United States, Dylann Roof killed nine people in his shooting rampage at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina, on June 17, 2015.1 Similar events have been recorded in many Western European countries, as well as in Russia and Eastern Europe.

  • Újjáéled-E Az Európai Szélsőjobboldali Terrorizmus?
    Nemzet és Biztonság 2012/5-6. szám | 105–115. Répási Krisztián Újjáéled-e az európai szélsőjobboldali terrorizmus? Egészen 2011 közepéig a szélsőjobboldali terrorizmus a politikai erőszak már-már el- feledettnek hitt megjelenési formájának számított. A norvégiai merényletek, valamint a Németországban lelepleződött neonáci halálbrigád által elkövetett gyilkosságsorozat azonban rámutattak arra, hogy a terrorizmusnak ez a válfaja marginalizált formában ugyan, de továbbra is jelen van. Írásunkban a szélsőjobboldali terrorszervezeteken, a gyűlölet-bűncselekmény és a terrorizmus közötti határmezsgyén működő fontosabb csoportokon, valamint a magányos elkövetőkön keresztül megvizsgáljuk, hogy az el- múlt 10-15 évben miként alakult a kontinens szélsőjobboldali terrorizmussal kapcsola- tos fenyegetettsége. A gyűlöletcsoportok kapcsán szükségesnek tartjuk hangsúlyoz- ni, hogy terjedelmi okokból kifolyólag csak azokat az elsősorban Nyugat-Európában működő szerveződéseket tudjuk megvizsgálni, amelyeket a hatóságok valamilyen for- mában a terrorizmussal hoztak összefüggésbe. Ebből adódóan a terrorizmus szintjét el nem érő extremista tevékenységről, illetve a gyűlölet-bűncselekményről csak érin- tőlegesen ejtünk szót. Terrorista szervezetek, gyűlöletcsoportok A szélsőbaloldali és a szeparatista terrorizmushoz hasonlóan az európai szélsőjobboldali terrorizmus története is az 1970–1980-as évekre nyúlik vissza.

  • Zombies and Zionism: the Dead and the Undead in Israeli Horror Films
    Zombies and Zionism: The Dead and the Undead in Israeli Horror Films Olga Gershenson Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies, Volume 39, Number 1, Spring 2021, pp. 147-175 (Article) Published by Purdue University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/784521 [ Access provided at 13 Mar 2021 15:43 GMT from UMass Amherst Libraries ] Article Zombies and Zionism: The Dead and the Undead in Israeli Horror Films Olga Gershenson ABSTRACT Horror films are often understood as a reflection of current cultural anxi- eties and national concerns. In Israel, where the military plays an outsized role, several horror films are set in the army. This article focuses on the two zombie films:Poisoned (2011) and Cannon Fodder (2013). Unlike other monsters, zombies don’t come from the outside. They are part and parcel of the society consuming their fellow citizens. In Poisoned, the outbreak stems from an army-distributed vaccine. The infected soldiers turn into zombies and attack their own. In Cannon Fodder, the first zombies are Arabs, the traditional enemy of Israeli film. But later, the Israeli military is revealed as the real source of the deadly virus. As the infection spreads, both IDF soldiers and Israeli civilians turn into zombies. Thus, the army is turning into monsters the very society that it is supposed to protect, ironi- cally, through excessive aggression against the enemy. Within the horror genre, zombie films specifically take issue with the dominant social structures in a given society. If in the United States context, films about zombie outbreaks reflect popular distrust with Big Government and Big Business, Israeli films reflect a distrust with Big Army.
