  In previous studies, multiagency collaboration was identified as a key strategy for early intervention in violent extremism. However, there has been little focus on professionals’ shared communication to support collaboration. The aim of this study was to describe trust in multiagency collaboration teams in the Nordic countries tasked with preventing violent extremism. The data have been collected through simulatedcase discussions for groups (N=13) and individual interviews (N=78) with multiagency professionals in Norway, Denmark, Finland and Sweden and analyzed using the thematic analysis method. Based on our results, trust emerged on 1) structural, 2)professional and 3) perceived personal levels. In addition, we identified facilitators and barriers for building trust at these levels. To fully understand the potential of trust, we argue that there is a need to take into account all these three levels of trust. Finally, we find that particularized trust can function as a foundation for building generalized trust. In future, more knowledge is needed about how to enable and manage trust with multiagency collaboration at organizational, but also national and international, level.

  A reform is underway in Kenya, aimed at transforming the police organization into a people- centred police service. Among other things, this involves enhancing police-public trust and partnerships through community policing (COP). Two state-initiated COP models have been implemented: the National Police Service’s Community Policing Structure, and the Nyumba Kumi model of the President’s Office. On paper, police reform and the two COP models would appear to have the potential to improve police-public cooperation. In practice, however, implementation has proven difficult. Interviews and meetings with local community organizations, community representatives and police officers in urban and rural parts of Kenya indicate that scepticism towards the two COP models is common, as is refusal to engage in them. But why is this so? Why are these two COP models unsuccessful in enhancing police-public trust and cooperation? This article analyses how various contextual factors—such as conflicting socio-economic and political interests at the community and national levels, institutional challenges within the police, the overall role and mandate of the police in Kenya, and a top-down approach to COP—impede the intended police paradigm shift.

  Soldiers of Odin Norway have tried very hard to communicate that they were not vigilantes and not right-wing extremists. Although they obviously have displayed some traits of vigilantism and anti-Islam opinions, they were clearly less militant and right-wing extremist than their original role model, the Soldiers of Odin in Finland. This chapter will explore why the Norwegian chapter of the Soldiers of Odin (SOO) turned out as a rather moderate variety of the phenomenon but also why it – in its stated mission to provide public safety in the streets – attracted a particular type of participants: young men with a criminal past.

  Risikoen for terrorangrep i Norge er stor. Det har skjedd før og vil høyst sannsynlig skje igjen. For å redusere terrortrusler og økt polarisering er store deler av det norske velferdssamfunnet involvert i forebygging. Lærere og politi, ansatte i NAV og PST, ungdomsarbeidere og trossamfunn – listen over sentrale aktører er lang. Samtidig er det stor usikkerhet knyttet til hva som kan utgjøre en trussel. I denne boka retter etablerte og nye forskere søkelyset mot hvordan norsk forebygging praktiseres. Hvem skal forebygge? Hva fungerer og hvorfor? Virker enkelte tiltak mot sin hensikt? Hvordan organiserer man best forebygging i en velferdsstat? Hva skal til for at mennesker forlater sin ekstremisme? Disse spørsmålene belyses gjennom erfaringer fra dem som skal iverksette forebyggende tiltak, og fra dem som er eller kan være i målgruppen for tiltakene. Det norske samfunnets ønske om å forebygge radikalisering og voldelig ekstremisme er større enn evnen. Når velferdsaktører forlater sine roller som hjelpere og tilretteleggere og i stedet kontrollerer og sender bekymringsmeldinger, er veien kort til stigmatisering og ekskludering. To skritt fram under forebyggingsfanen blir fort minst ett skritt tilbake. Forebygging av radikalisering og voldelig ekstremisme gir viktige bidrag til den offentlige samtalen om hvordan man bør forstå og innrette forebyggingen. Målet med boka er å belyse og styrke forebyggingen av radikalisering og voldelig ekstremisme.

  Leaving a violent extremist organisation involves taking risks. People thinking of disengaging from such groups must give careful consideration to whether it feels safe to do so. Disarmament, Demobilisation and Reintegration (DDR) programmes are normally implemented after a peace agreement is in place. However, this does not apply several conflict-ridden areas around the world today, such as South Central Somalia. Providing adequate security for those wanting to leave violent extremist groups is arguably a key element for success for programmes operating in contexts of still ongoing conflict. This article looks at some of the security challenges the Defector Rehabilitation Programme (DRP) for al-Shabaab members has encountered in South Central Somalia.

  This edited volume offers a thorough review of peacekeeping theory and reality in contemporary contexts, and aligns the two to help inform practice. Recent UN peacekeeping operations have challenged the traditional peacekeeping principles of consent, impartiality and the minimum use of force. The pace and scope of these changes have now reached a tipping point, as the new mandates are fundamentally challenging the continued validity of the UN peacekeeping’s core principles and identity. In response the volume analyses the growing gap between these actual practices and existing UN peacekeeping doctrine, exploring how it undermines the effectiveness of UN operations, and endangers lives, arguing that a common doctrine is a critical starting point for effective multi-national operations. In order to determine the degree to which this general principle applies to the current state of UN peacekeeping, this book: - Provides a review of conceptual and doctrinal developments in UN peacekeeping operations through a historical perspective - Examines the debate related to peace operations doctrine and concepts among key Member States - Focuses on the actual practice of peacekeeping by conducting case studies of several UN peacekeeping missions in order to identify gaps between practice and doctrine - Critically analyses gaps between emerging peacekeeping practice and existing doctrine - Recommends that the UN moves beyond the peacekeeping principles and doctrine of the past Combining empirical case-based studies on UN peace operations, with studies on the views and policies of key UN Security Council members that generate these mandates, and views of key contributors of UN peacekeepers, this volume will be of great use to policy-makers; UN officials and peace operations practitioners; and academics working on peace and conflict/security studies, international organizations and conflict management.

  The swift takeover of Afghanistan by the Taliban took the world by surprise, but it was nevertheless not completely unexpected. The news is now filled with scenes of panic and trepidation, and both Afghans and the international community are uncertain how the new regime will manage the momentous task of running a country and ensuring human security for its people. In this talk, we will begin by reflecting on the diversity of experience of local communities with the Taliban in the past, linking it to a broader set of insecurities faced by mainly rural populations. We then move on to look at what police reform, heavily supported by the international community, looked like in the period prior to the Taliban takeover, and reflect on whether there is a role for these police under the Taliban, and what this might be.

  En av erkjennelsene etter terror-handlingene 22. juli 2011 var at det manglet oppdatert kunnskap om høyreekstremisme i Norge, og at fenomenet hadde endret seg betydelig de siste 10-15 årene.

De forebygg­ings-metodene som viste seg effektive overfor de rasistiske ungdomsmiljøene på 1990-­tallet og fram til midten av 2000-tallet, har mindre relevans overfor dagens høyre­ekstremister.

  Community policing is increasingly used as a strategy for bringing the police and public closer together. However, both close and distanced police-public relationships have advantages and disadvantages. How close should the police and the public ideally be? Based on interviews with community-based organizations, NGOs, community members and police officers in urban and rural parts of Kenya, this policy brief analyses community policing through a relational lens, identifying the pros and cons of closeness versus distance in police-public relations.

  The Somali jihadi organization al-Shabaab, yet again featured in the news internationally when they attacked a business and hotel complex in Nairobi 15 January this year. This is not the first time the group carries out largescale attacks outside the Somali boarders. Other examples are the Garissa University College attack in 2015, the mass shooting at Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi in 2013 and the Kampala attacks in 2010. However, the majority of the atrocities committed by al-Shabaab take place in South Central Somalia. The Global Terrorism Index 2018 ranked Somalia as number 6 on its list of countries most impacted by terrorism in 2017.1 Al-Shabaab was behind the deadliest terrorist attack in 2017 worldwide, when a suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden truck, killing 587 people in Mogadishu. Although al-Shabaab has had several military setbacks the last few years, the group still poses a significant threat to security and stability in the region. As the name al-Shabaab (‘the youth’) indicates, young people predominate in the group. This means that thousands of individuals spend parts of their youth in al- Shabaab. The question then arises: how to best assist the ones who want to leave the group?

The promises and limitations of using municipal community policing programs to counter violent extremism : Calgary's re-direct as a case study. Norges miljø- og biovitenskapelige universitet (NMBU). Fulltekst i vitenarkiv Vis sammendrag

  The mobilization of Western foreign fighters to join the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has left governments in many countries searching for the most appropriate response. Calgary, Alberta in Western Canada has not been immune to this issue. On top of deploying ‘hard’ approaches (law enforcement and intelligence), Calgary has also embraced the ‘softer’ measures of early intervention and radicalization prevention. The latter category of programs is often labelled ‘countering violent extremism’ (CVE). This thesis examines one such CVE program – ReDirect – launched in September 2015 by the Calgary Police Service. ReDirect was chosen as a case study because it is the first dedicated municipal level, community policing, radicalization prevention program in Canada. The objective of this research project is to fill the gap in literature on Canadian municipal-level CVE programming. The study’s findings are largely based on fourteen interviews with people with in-depth knowledge of the program, which were conducted primarily during fieldwork in Calgary, Alberta in spring 2016. The study finds that Canada’s framing of CVE as a national security issue results in an “intervention gap” on the radicalization continuum. Due to a combination of legislative, judicial, operational, strategic and political hurdles, none of the federal agencies working on CVE – the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and Public Safety Canada – are able to intervene in early stages of radicalization. Municipal-level programs such as ReDirect provide one way to fill this critical gap. Calgary Police’s adoption of lessons learned from similar programs, its previous successes in community policing and the community’s buy-in suggest that ReDirect may work in reducing radicalization. However, the program also faces limitations. Given the localized nature of ReDirect, the primary determinant of whether a person can access its services is not their need but their postal code. Applying Nesser’s typology of a terror cell reveals that ReDirect will likely only work on a sub-set of individuals vulnerable to violent extremism. Of the four types suggested by Nesser (entrepreneurs, protégés, misfits and drifters), ReDirect would only succeed with the latter two. While ReDirect is the first program of its kind in Canada, its framework may not serve as an appropriate model for other jurisdictions to follow. ReDirect’s signature feature – the central role of police as a convenor of government and civil society groups – works in Calgary because of several unique characteristics and may not necessarily prove suitable for other municipalities looking to create a similar program.

• Gjelsvik, Ingvild Magnæs; Bjørkhaug, Ingunn & Ekvik, Linda (2016). Should I stay or should I go? : postwar rural-urban resettlement among Acholi youth in Northern Uganda. Norges miljø- og biovitenskapelige universitet (NMBU). Fulltekst i vitenarkiv Vis sammendrag

  This research is an empirical study of postwar rural-urban migration among Acholi youth in Northern Uganda. In this thesis I look at the connection between rural land access among Acholi youth and their urban-rural social resettlement after the ceasefire between The Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) and the Ugandan People’s Defence Force (UPDF), from the theoretical framework of Everett S. Lee’s (1966) push and pull factors in migration. The social resettlement of Acholi youth after the war is seen in the light of their current rural land access. During my fieldtrip to Northern Uganda I interviewed 13 Acholi youths in rural, semi-urban and urban areas and four expert informants. According to perceptions of informants in this study, the majority of Acholi youth have not resettled in a rural place in spite of their regained rural land access. Hence, there seems to be a weak correlation between youths’ rural land access and their rural resettlement. This can be connected to what youth informants of this study perceive to be urban advantages or urban pull factors, like urban educational and economic opportunities, which enable a more diverse lifestyle than found in rural places. Urban and semi-urban environments of displacement during the war can have played a role in enhancing the awareness among Acholi youth of urban advantages. The study also suggests that postwar rural land access combined with postwar urban youth centralization have created blurred lines between rural and urban Acholi youth. For instance, for youth informants who now have their basic homestead in an urban place, it was not uncommon to be connected to rural land through part time rural agricultural activities. Additionally, many youth was reported to have resettled in rural places after the closure of the IDP camps even though some would prefer urban resettlement. Youth who are settled in urban places can often have parents who have resettled in a rural place. Lastly, several youth informants expressed a feeling of belonging to their rural customary land, as their place of origin, even though they have resettled in an urban place. With the lack of a clear urban/rural distinction between Acholi youth, a wave of increasing tendency to privatize land in Northern Uganda and a changing postwar mentality concerning the meaning of land and wealth, Acholi youth seem to have been put in a limbo between changes of modernity and the status quo of tradition embedded in their rural customary land. This was seen in their ambivalence towards having the interest to sell rural customary land, a desire to own their own private land, their longing for an identity based on their roots and origin and the continuity reflected in their rural customary land.

  This study addresses how and why individuals in Somalia get involved in piracy activities, and how and why some of these individuals eventually disengage from such criminal groups. Based on qualitative interviews with 16 ex-pirates and pirate associates and a number of other locals and experts, the study provides first-hand insights into some of the conditions, circumstances and processes which may serve to discourage involvement and continued engagement in piracy. Furthermore, it analyzes factors and circumstances which may encourage and facilitate disengagement from these criminal activities and reintegration into non-criminal economic activities and social relationships. The lack of employment and livelihood motivated individuals to engage in piracy. However, disappointment about the lack of expected profit, coupled with the prospect of a licit income, influenced some to end their piracy involvement. Another important factor were the strong statements by local Muslim leaders that piracy was haram (forbidden). This was often reinforced by family and community objections to their involvement in piracy. Family members also played important roles in facilitating their disengagement. The study is assessing some aspects of the “Alternative Livelihood to Piracy” project and its role in facilitating disengagement from piracy.
