Very excited to have a new article out in the latest edition of the Journal for Deradicalization! In the piece, I take a look at how scholars and practitioners have used strategic communication to promote help-seeking behavior and reframe public health crises as preventable challenges. Link below!

What We Talk About When We Talk About Prevention: A Scoping Review of the Literature on Prevention-Oriented Strategic Communication Abstract: In recent years, scholars and practitioners have increasingly turned to the example of the public health community to inform efforts to prevent targeted violence and terrorism. Building on these efforts, this scoping review explores the state of the literature as it relates to the role of strategic communication in a public health-informed approach to prevention. More specifically, this review examines how strategic communication can support primordial prevention initiatives—especially efforts to normalize prevention-oriented approaches to dealing with the challenge of targeted violence and terrorism. To that end, this scoping review examines both the terrorism studies literature, as well as the cognate field of public health, to help identify potential models to further develop prevention-oriented strategic communication. Following the PRISMA framework for literature reviews, I sought out relevant scholarship through searches of the Scopus database, the gray literature, and field-specific journals. This process generated a total of 135 studies that met the inclusion criteria, which fell within five categories. The first category captures the nascent literature on the role of strategic communication specifically as it relates to targeted violence prevention. The remaining four categories capture themes within the broader public health literature, namely the importance of Establishing Baselines, Enhancing Perceptions of Preventability, Engaging Stakeholders, and Evaluation and Sustainability.

Really enjoyed the opportunity to review @augustacaesar.bsky.social's great new book 'Saving Apartheid: White Internationalism at the End of the Cold War' Many thanks to @patrickobrienstrickland.com + @inkstickmedia.com for the opportunity to write about it!

Considering the US far right's obsession with South Africa, we might see today’s policies as the revival of a decades-old effort by activists, lawmakers, and ordinary Americans to advance a vision of transatlantic white supremacy.

You may have missed the CIA's recent decision to retract or substantially revise more than a dozen intelligence assessments. I had the chance to write about the withdrawal of one particular product for @lawfaremedia.org, and what makes the move so concerning. Check it out below.

The CIA’s retraction of intelligence reports should raise concerns about politicization and the Trump administration’s embrace of white supremacist rhetoric, writes Joseph Stabile.

Had the chance to write about an excellent new book by @tmitts.bsky.social, which prompted some broader thoughts about the state of efforts to counter online extremism

Referencing Tamar Mitts’ recently published Safe Havens for Hate: The Challenge of Moderating Online Extremism, Joseph Stabile considers the trajectory of online threat actors, voluntary platform commitments, and international regulatory regimes over the past decade.

In light of today's DOJ charges against two prominent neo-Nazi content creators on the terroristic "Terrorgram" network, I wrote about how the network has changed over the past 5 years I've looked at it — and its connection to terrorism legislation. postsfromunderground.ghost.io/thats-three-...
