Book excerpt: "Children have always been among the most vulnerable victims of violence and, at times, some of its brutal purveyors. They have played various roles in furthering violent extremism and participating in acts of violence, ranging from inciting propaganda online to carrying out deadly attacks. Rather than exceptionalizing these children, their treatment under the criminal justice system should be grounded in juvenile justice standards. To advance the work of the Global Counterterrorism Forum (GCTF), the government of Australia commissioned the Global Center and the International Centre for Counter-Terrorism--The Hague (ICCT) to prepare a report and accompanying policy brief putting forward guiding principles, recommendations, and considerations for the detention, rehabilitation, and reintegration of juveniles convicted of terrorism and violent extremism offenses. Together, they advance a juvenile justice approach for authorities responsible for their care and support the notion that national security interests and juvenile justice imperatives are compatible and mutually reinforcing in preventing and countering violent extremism. Responding to a call from the GCTF Neucĥtel Memorandum on Good Practices for Juvenile Justice in a Counterterrorism Context to collect and collate information on children engaged in terrorism-related activity, the report takes stock of theory, policies, and practice globally. The recommendations draw from international juvenile justice standards, the emerging body of principles and practices in the detention of adult violent extremist offenders, and the national experiences in demobilizing and reintegrating child combatants and members of organized criminal groups. The report elaborates on the Policy Brief that was formally adopted by the GCTF in December 2016. The policy brief was adapted for publication in EuroVista's Probation and Community Justice Journal, available at http://euro-vista.org/."--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The terrorist attacks on September 11th 2001 in New York and on July 7th 2005 in London were devastating. The London terrorist attacks executed by four British home-grown terrorists sent shockwaves throughout the nation. Since then, the risk and threat of home-grown terrorists have increased, especially towards the recruitment and radicalisation of vulnerable children and young people, as seen with Islamic State. This raises further questions pertaining to the safeguarding, well-being and protection of vulnerable children and young people from these extremist and terrorist groups. This book seeks to open up these discussions and challenges in these counter-terrorism and safeguarding realms, within a British context. It offers a range of publications, research, views and perspectives that provide a fresh analysis of the problems that we face within a safeguarding context since the attacks in 2005. This book is geared to those in particular from social work and social care disciplines, with wider relevance for all sectors working with these groups. Mr Boora’s new book gives an illuminating insight into some of the challenges faced by professionals, practitioners, managers, services and organisations within this rapidly developing agenda. This ranges from understanding safeguarding responsibilities, what is extremism, the Prevent agenda and terrorism legislation to current MI5 security concerns and inter-agency responses. This research seeks to clear up misunderstandings and misconceptions and to sharpen the focus where many can prioritise their efforts. ‘Boora has produced a timely and relevant primer on the intersection of safeguarding and radicalisation, written from the perspective of a very experienced practitioner in this field. It will provoke much needed thought and discussion’ Dr Gary Manders, Lecturer in Criminology and Sociology, University of Bedfordshire ‘Jaswant has executed an excellent contribution towards understanding the current concerns of extremism affecting children and young people. A good read for all professionals working in these sectors’.. Mohammed Saleem, Director of CMS est. 1981 “A superb read, at last a tangible document that gives those working at the front line with vulnerable young people real insight and knowledge of how serious the issue has become and the impact on keeping our young people safe” Christine Matthews-Harvey, Safeguarding & Gang Culture Trainer, Registered Children’s Home Manager, Keys Group

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The involvement of terrorist and violent extremist groups entails numerous new challenges for States. First, prevention has become particularly complex, as evidenced by the innovative methods of propaganda and recruitment employed specifically by such groups. This is a primary concern to efforts to effectively tackle a security threat while, at the same time, limiting the victimization of such children. Secondly, because of their association with terrorism-related activities, which are classified in international and national law as serious offences, an increasing number of children come into contact with national authorities, in particular with justice authorities. In this context, the questions range from the applicable international legal framework to the legal status of the children and the competent authorities and procedures to deal with them. Such children are commonly regarded as a security risk and subsequently exposed to further violations of their rights. Finally, there is a lack of understanding regarding the rehabilitation and reintegration measures that can be effective in addressing the particular stigma associated with terrorism, while taking into account the extreme violence that has always characterized recruitment and exploitation of children. Also in this context, a key challenge is how to build upon the lessons learned from the reintegration of children who have been used in conflict situations and also address the specific issues related to terrorism. The underlying concern, which is at the core of the present publication, is how States can preserve public safety and, at the same time, effectively protect the rights of the child.

Book excerpt: The present Manual presents practical approaches and measures that can be put in place, particularly in the justice system and in collaboration with other sectors, to prevent child recruitment and exploitation by terrorist and violent extremist groups. Pursuing the common goal of preventing child recruitment by terrorist and violent extremist groups involves working together, not only within the justice system but also with other systems such as child protection, education and health, to design early interventions for children at risk and ensure that these children and their families receive the protection, assistance and support that they need.

Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been much controversy about the proper forum in which to prosecute and punish suspected terrorists. Some have endorsed aggressive use of military commissions; others have proposed an entirely new "national security court." However, as the nation strives for a vigorous and effective response to terrorism, we should not lose sight of the important tools that are already at our disposal, nor should we forget the costs and risks of seeking to break new ground by departing from established institutions and practices. As this White Paper shows, the existing criminal justice system has proved successful at handling a large number of important and challenging terrorism prosecutions over the past fifteen years-without sacrificing national security interests, rigorous standards of fairness and due process, or just punishment for those guilty of terrorism-related crimes.

Book excerpt: With the rise of religiously motivated violence and terrorism, governments around the world need to develop their religious and ideological capabilities in parallel with strengthening their law enforcement, military and intelligence capabilities. Terrorist Rehabilitation: A New Frontier in Counter-terrorism aims to provide an understanding of the importance of the approach and strategy of terrorist rehabilitation in countering this threat.Comprising of nine chapters, this book provides case study assessments of terrorist rehabilitation practices set against the backdrop of their unique operational and geopolitical milieu in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Indonesia and Sri Lanka. This will help the reader to form a foundational understanding of the concept of terrorist rehabilitation by combining the insights, successes and experience of senior government officials and counter-terrorism experts. In addition, the contributors provide discussions on religious concepts that have been manipulated by violent Islamists as a background to understanding religiously or ideologically motivated terrorism and the avenues open for countering it.
