How do young people from immigrant families become engaged in politics? Anja Schmidt-Kleinert examines the case of young Israelis who are actively engaged with the nationalist Yisra'el Beitenu party, led by the Israeli minister of defence, Avigdor Lieberman. She explores how the activists present Israeli citizenship in a way that is exclusionary to non-Jewish citizens and analyses their strategy to actively construct a sense of belonging to Israeli society or, more precisely, to the Jewish collective by using the ethno-nationalist public discourse

This paper addresses terrorism trials as sites of research and proposes an approach for the analysis of ethnographic data collected during these trials. The suggested approach offers multi-level analytical access, it centres around interactionist conceptions and knowledge discourses. The conceptual framework we suggest is spelled out in terms of how to observe and being sensitive of (re-)production of power structures inside the courtroom as well as in regard to relations imported into the courtroom. For this purpose, we integrate the micro-level of courtroom interactions (i) and (self-)presentation, (ii) the meso-level of knowledge discourses (iii) and the macro-level of social structure, informing legal and security policy. By applying a multi-level approach, we open up new explanatory avenues to understand the constitution of terrorism as a socio-legal object. The methodical framework connects hitherto unconnected elements, i.e. (i) participants' interactions and negotiation, (ii) their (self-)representations, ascriptions and narrative performances, and (iii) knowledge (re-)production in order to establish or maintain political and social orders.

For this purpose, we integrate (i) the micro-level of courtroom interactions and (ii) (self-)presentation, (iii) the meso-level of knowledge (re)production and the establishment of knowledge orders and (iv) an intersectional perspective on gender, race, and class in knowledge discourses.

The methodical framework connects hitherto unconnected elements, that is, participants' interactions and negotiation, their (self-)representations, ascriptions and narrative performances, and knowledge (re-)production in order to establish or maintain political and social orders.

Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit dem Umgang von Ermittlungsbehörden, Staatsanwaltschaften und Gerichten mit extrem rechten und rassistischen Gewalttaten. Aus Ermittlungsakten und einer Medienanalyse wurden zehn Fälle (schwerer) Brandstiftung gegen Asylunterkünfte aus den Jahren 2015 und 2016 ausgewählt, die strafrechtlich abgeschlossen sind und aus sozialwissenschaftlicher Perspektive eindeutig als rechtsterroristische Straftaten eingeordnet werden können: Allen Fällen liegt ein rassistisches Tatmotiv zugrunde, und es lässt sich eine politische Botschaft der Taten rekonstruieren. Die Opfer dieser rechten Gewalttaten waren zudem "symbolische Ziele". Die Analyse zeigt jedoch, dass es Ermittlungsbehörden und Gerichten oftmals an Sensibilität für rechtsterroristische Taten fehlt. Rechtsterroristische Akte werden als solche nur bedingt erkannt. Damit bleibt das Ausmaß des Rechtsterrorismus weiterhin eine Blackbox - trotz seiner langen Geschichte und trotz der Erfahrungen mit dem NSU-Komplex.

The current paper documents the results of a multi-disciplinary international workshop on ethics in (de-)radicalization research, organized by the authors at the Bochum Center for Advanced Internet Studies (CAIS) in March 2019. In light of the specificity of each research context, this paper aims to develop a baseline for ethical standards across projects, disciplines and contexts. The aim is to provide the instruments that allow for a project-specific setup that enables researchers to develop their own concepts and solutions in the context of their empirical field. The following sections elaborate on the above issues, pointing to practices and possible proceedings so as to ensure ethical standards in (de)radicalization research.
