The use of violence by youngsters with regard to far-right groups in Flanders

In the study we aim to verify to what extent Flemish youngsters show

covariates of extreme right-wing attitudes and the expression of right-wing

violence, how extreme right groups in Flanders are organised, how young people

in extreme right groups turn to committing violent acts and how the society

can protect itself. Herefore we combine a quantitative methodology (analysis

of SCV-data) with a qualitative part (in-depth interviews).
