Research in Counter-Radicalisation
As part of a new module, we will be introducing into our curriculum, we would like research into the area of counter-radicalisation and terrorism.
We are looking for research into the following areas:
Government action on counter-radicalisation
Look at strategies such as PREVENT, what their aims are, how it works and the outcomes that have resulted from the strategies.
Look into other government programmes including those in prisons
What criminal offences related to extremism, and how are they dealt with by the courts?
SHORT Analysis of key cases:
Begum Case
Finsbury Park Attack
Ummar Haque
Jo Cox
Any other relevant cases
Why is there controversy of charging someone with murder vs terrorism and the sentencing difference and motivations of the authorities for doing so.
Media portrayal of the above, charging someone with murder vs terrorism. Links for articles would be helpful
This is a large task so may require multiple volunteers depending on the time availability each volunteer is able to offer. If you are interested in researching any point, please get in touch.
We look forward to hearing from you!
