Black Lives Matter: The role of emotions for mobilization and demobilization.
Vis sammendrag
In the spring of 2020, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests shook the world. Spreading from the US, demonstrations diffused globally, especially to Europe, calling out all kinds of racism, particularly structural racism and that emanating from the police. Emotions ran high and were pivotal in igniting protests. The role of emotion in social movements has received renewed scholarly attention during the last two decades. It plays an important role at every stage of protest, but few studies have traced its part in individuals’ mobilization and demobilization over time. This study examines the role of emotion in trajectories of engagement and disengagement during the global wave of BLM protests. Based on retrospective in-depth interviews with 38 participants in BLM demonstrations in Norway, we identify the role of emotion before, during and after their participation. Our findings help explain how individual patterns of participation develop in the course of a wave of protest, and also provide insights into the consequences of the recent BLM protests in Europe.

Muslimfiendtlige holdninger og hets er utbredt i Norge, men hva vet vi om muslimers reaksjoner? Vår studie viser at muslimers måter å respondere på hets på kan beskytte deres egenverd og religiøse identitet. Det kan også begrense virkningen av hets.

Being labelled as “violent extremists”: The consequences of soft repression.
Right Now!.
Vis sammendrag
What are the consequences of being labeled as a “violent extremist”? How does labeling affect individual activists, their organizations, and the social movement they are part of? In a recent study, we show that labeling – and the associated stigma – affects different radical groups in different ways and that it sometimes fails to demobilize the primary targets of the repressive actions, that is, the most militant groups. Rather, the effects are most evident amongst organizations that mobilize inclusively and openly, using primarily conventional protest tactics. From this we highlight the potential “backfire effects” of labelling, as the most militant groups might be further radicalized by this form of soft repression.

Preventing radicalization and violent extremism in Norway: The emergence of a new field of policy and practice.
Vis sammendrag
The prevention of radicalization is an example of a "wicked problem": a problem which no single actor can handle alone, and which is almost impossible to solve. Throughout the last decade, Nordic governments have therefore imposed increased cooperation across state, private and civil society actors to strengthen the prevention of radicalization and violent extremism (PRVE). Collaborative PRVE efforts has involved the assignment of new responsibilities to schools, social and child care services, civil society organizations, religious societies, local communities and others - also involving the police and its secret service. PRVE has thus changed from primarily being a law enforcement issue, to become the shared responsibility of citizens, local communities and an array of state and private actors. A work logic have been established that centers around forestalling criminal extremist acts from ever happening. The implementation of these new responsibilities, collaborative practices and preemptive logics
have been crucial in creating what is currently a loose nation-wide structure and apparatus for PRVE in Norway. This paper traces the emergence of PRVE as a new policy field in Norway, provides a description of its characteristics and associated practices, while also discussing the
role of the police and security-orientation in multi-agency PRVE work.

Being labeled as “violent extremists”: The effects of soft repression on individual, organizational and movement levels.
Vis sammendrag
This paper examines the effects of soft repression on social movement activists. By drawing on activists’ perceptions, we develop a multi-layered analytical framework that captures the experienced effects of soft repression at the individual, organizational and movement levels. Our results show that soft repression–in particular, labeling and stigmatization –primarily affect the individual level by triggering self-policing and self-control among activists. By introducing a model that incorporates several radical social movement organizations, we also show how labeling and stigmatization affect different radical groups indifferent ways, and sometimes fail to demobilize the primary targets of the repressive actions, that is, the most militant and clandestine groups. Instead, the de-mobilizing effects seem most evident in organizations that mobilize openly and inclusively. Our analysis is based on in-depth interviews with thirty-one activists from the radical left-libertarian movement (RLLM) in Sweden, most of which have been active in organizations labeled as “violence-affirming extremists” by the Swedish government.

Managing militant Islamism in Norway (2009-2019): A process-oriented perspective.
Vis sammendrag
This paper analyses how the management of militant Islamism changed in Norway between 2009 and 2019. These changes are examined in relation to developments in the militant Islamist milieu and the global Salafist-jihadist movement it was part of, together with key events at the national and international levels. The period is analyzed as an “episode of contention” that has five distinct phases, which followed the escalation and de-escalation of conflict between the militant Islamists and those tasked to manage them. Analysis also identifies key events that led the way to the establishment of a national structure and apparatus for monitoring and managing radicalization and violent extremism. The analysis draws on several qualitative data sources.
