Treating Violent Extremists
Deradicalisation vs Disengagement
Deradicalisation - wanted by law agencies (e.g., police, court systems, etc.)
Seems to show very poor results
Disengagement - according to academics is a more realistic outcome
Individualised holistic approach
Community support
Needs and rival the support found within the extremist group
Fear of lash back from the community at large
Meeting with other ex-VE
Strength based approach
Developing skills
Education
Vocational
Obtaining a degree
Alternative non-violent means of political participation
Helping client find what is important to them
Addressing stigma - language matters!
Role of trauma
Role of kindness and understanding (e.g., parole officers, psychologists etc.)
Developing a sense of identity
Addressing SES
Addressing SE pressures
Attitudes and satisfaction of beneficiaries seems to influence engagement with programme
Meeting with victims of families
Exposure to consequences, seeing them as people
Whānau
Whānau acceptance
Extremely difficult to say with certainty what works, very few studies done on individual components
Fear of consequences coming back into the community (e.g., being killed) by other members of the group
Understanding of culture and views of the VE
Role of slef-autonomy (e.g., speaking in own language, encouraged to follow their own ways of being)
Difficult to evaluate programmes, as there is no standardised model or measure
Role of motivation
Need different approaches across different countries (can't have a one size fits all approach)
