Extremism and Violent Extremism in Serbia: 21-st Century Manifestations of an Historical Challenge<\/a><\/em>.\u00a0Valery Perry (Ed.) Ibidem Press\/Columbia University Press, 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The topics of extremism, violent extremism, and radicalization leading to terrorism have constituted an increasingly prominent area of policy interest and donor support in recent years, globally and in the western Balkans. This focus has been manifest through both an increased counterterrorism focus as well as efforts to prevent and counter violent extremism (P\/CVE) \u2013 activities which often reflect peacebuilding and democratization strategies. The main manifestation of extremism of interest to foreign donors (and often domestic authorities) is ISIS-inspired violent jihadism. However, in many of the countries in the region, and in the case of Serbia, there are other forms of extremism \u2013 namely far-right nationalism, violent hooliganism, and neo-Nazi movements \u2013 that are often considered to be more of a threat, particularly as they are often viewed as examples of \u201cnormalized\u201d political expression. The dynamics of reciprocal radicalization, in which competing extremisms feed off of, reinforce, and even need one another, can create seemingly intractable conflict spirals of escalation and violence.<\/p>\n

This volume explores these dynamics in Serbia through original research and perspectives that demonstrate that Serbia is vulnerable to many types of extremism, which can best be prevented by achieving the liberal, democratic, rights-based reforms that have remained elusive for more than two decades. This broad and holistic approach is important for Serbia and its neighbors, as the security lens through which most research has been focused to date has done little to explain the deep and structural dynamics of radicalization and extremism in the region.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0This volume provides a\u00a0comprehensive set of case studies, is\u00a0well-documented and provides insightful work that is much needed to improve knowledge of these local and regional trends.\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0Sonja Biserko, President, Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0This book focuses on research of right-wing and jihadist extremism through different case studies. Its special significance is reflected in the clear determination of the phenomena of terrorism and radicalization, which is useful in understanding the context of efforts to prevent and counter violent extremism.\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0Marija \u0110ori\u0107,<\/em> Associate Professor, Faculty for Media and Communication, Singidunum University, Belgrade<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cResearch into radicalization has too often taken the form of an a-contextual study of \u2018how individuals can go spectacularly wrong.\u2019 By contrast, this fine collection of essays takes the influence of local culture and context in an online age seriously. By focusing on the \u2013 strikingly neglected \u2013 experience of contemporary Serbia, they illuminate the sheer complexity of extremist dynamics that are still relentlessly played out in the long shadows of the 1990s; and are still fuelled by the endless renewal energy of nationalist self-pity. An important book; and a highly overdue one.\u201d\u00a0Dr. Tim Wilson, Director, Handa Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence, St. Andrews\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
