Session Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel
The internet has become an important resource for violent ideological organizations. The current panel gathers researchers who study how violent groups across three different ideologies operate online, with a particular focus on how extremists plan, describe, and wage attacks in virtual settings. Cyber-facilitated crime motivated by Left-Wing, Right-Wing, and Jihadist ideologies will be compared and contrasted, and implications for policy and future research will be shared through an interactive discussant-led session.
