In the current issue of Focus magazine, ACIPSS researcher Dr. Florian Hartleb comments on the growing problem of teenage terrorism. In particular, he highlights the role of virtual radicalization channels and the changing recruitment methods of extremist groups:
“We still have the typical image of the right-wing thug from the 1990s in our minds: bomber jacket, combat boots, baseball bat. Back then, there was a right-wing extremist subculture, and young people were recruited through youth clubs or concerts. Today, the growth experienced by right-wing extremist groups is virtually driven,” says Hartleb.
His book on the subject of “teenage terrorism” will be published in early September by Hoffmann und Campe and will also focus specifically on prevention strategies.
