摘要

从历史上看，大流行不可避免地会产生妖魔化和替罪羊，COVID-19大流行也不例外。一些个人和团体企图将这一流行病武器化并加以利用，以此作为传播其极端主义意识形态的手段，并使他人对其事业采取激进态度。对7个在线极端主义论坛的分段回归分析显示，在宣布大流行后，在暴力右翼极端主义和incel论坛上发帖的行为显著增加。左翼或圣战论坛的情况并非如此。这些不平等的影响可能反映了右翼和煽动极端主义基于不满和网络的特殊性质。

A Witch’s Brew of Grievances: The Potential Effects of COVID-19 on Radicalization to Violent Extremism

Abstract Historically, pandemics had inevitably produced demonization and scapegoating, and the COVID-19 pandemic has been no exception. Some individuals and groups have attempted to weaponize and exploit the pandemic, to use it as a means of spreading their extremist ideologies and to radicalize others to their causes. Segmented regression analyses of seven online extremist forums revealed that posting behavior on violent right-wing extremist and incel forums increased significantly following the declaration of the pandemic. The same was not true of left-wing or jihadist forums. These unequal effects likely reflect the particular grievance-based and online nature of right-wing and incel extremism.

期刊介绍： Terrorism and insurgency are now the dominant forms of conflict in the world today. Fuelled by moribund peace processes, ethnic and religious strife, disputes over natural resources, and transnational organized crime, these longstanding security challenges have become even more violent and intractable: posing new threats to international peace and stability. Studies in Conflict and Terrorism aims to cast new light on the origins and implications of conflict in the 21st Century and to illuminate new approaches and solutions to countering the growth and escalation of contemporary sub-state violence.
