Abstract

In recent years, a new policy field on the prevention of radicalisation has emerged in northwestern Europe. The aim of this special section is, accordingly, to provide some first academic assessments of radicalisation prevention policies' effectiveness in northwestern Europe states. The present introduction sets the scene for this endeavour by proving a brief description of the typical characteristics of the evolving policy field of counter-radicalisation in northwestern European states. It introduces us to different types of counter-radicalisation policies and the typical actor-constellations involved in the implementation of counter-radicalisation. The introduction then reviews the existing literature as a way to provide a background understanding of what may determine the effectiveness of counter-radicalisation policies. Furthermore, the introduction reflects on the endeavour of assessing effectiveness of counter-radicalisation policies and outlines some fundamental methodological challenges to this enterprise and some initial thoughts on the nature of ‘critical’ assessments. Finally, the introduction lays out the three different dimensions of policy effectiveness which the special section is structured around and provides brief introductions to the individual contributions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
