Preventing and countering violent extremism and radicalization is increasingly gaining momentum as a supplement to more traditional counterterrorism activities in the efforts to protect societies against terrorism. The Danish approach has attracted attention not least because of its gentler approach to returnees from Syria and Iraq and the fact that it has been developing for nearly a decade.
The present report provides an introductory overview of the main actors and initiatives in the Danish approach and an introduction to the foundations on which it is build. It also discusses the main dilemmas, challenges and criticisms with which the approach is faced with the aim of contributing to its further development. The Danish approach to preventing and countering violent extremism and radicalization is based on extensive multi-agency collaboration between various social-service providers, the educational system, the health-care system, the police, and the intelligence and security services. It benefits greatly from existing structures and initiatives developed for other purposes. It includes state, regional and local actors and is structured around efforts targeted respectively at the wider Danish society, extremist individuals and groups, and individuals involved, or in imminent danger of becoming involved, in illegal activities. Concrete methods are continuously being developed , both top-down and bottom-up, to meet contemporary challenges, but the approach in its entirety rests on a set of fundamental premises ranging from understandings of the welfare state to understandings of crime and of how behaviour can be changed. In order for other countries to determine whether there are lessons to be learned from the Danish approach, knowledge is required about these understandings and the existing structures into which the efforts are incorporated.
