What’s the difference between those young extremists drawn to left-wing, to right-wing or to Islamist extremism? Professors Sandrine Haymoz (University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Fribourg) and Patrik Manzoni (University of Applied Sciences, Zurich) reveal the results of research in Switzerland on what characterises young political extremists of different political leanings.

This presentation was part of a panel titled “Promoting Youth Inclusion for Sustainable and Resilient Communities”, in the framework of World Social Work Day 2018. For more information about the event, visit unrisd.org/wswd2018
