Description

"JM Berger gives a Keynote Speech on 24, June 2016 at VOX-Pol's Mid Project Conference: Taking Stock of Research on Violent Online Political Extremism. JM Berger, Fellow with George Washington University's Program on Extremism, argues that while far from over, the best days of Islamic State's social media campaign are behind it. The lecture transitions into a discussion on the complex challenges which lie ahead, as a wide variety of extremist and anti-social movements learn to use the same tools to spread violence and hate."
