Educational Responses Toward Community Violence
Alarming rates of community violence and the detrimental impact on youth and communities stress the need for a well-founded response. This paper presents an integrative review of theory and research on the broad range of educational interventions to counter community violence. Based on critical analysis of distinctions in perspectives, objectives, and strategies, we established a multidisciplinary taxonomy of distinguishable approaches. The resul…
Taking back control
Voicing versus silencing
Community schools educate for peace in resistance to neighbourhood violence • Social dynamics in violent contexts limit opportunities to discuss moral values openly • Community teachers combine restrictive approaches and an ethic of care to promote peace • Distance conjoined with an insider view enables teachers to create peaceful alternatives • Critical understanding of violent contexts is crucial for peace education’s transformative power While…
Reshaping Parental Ethnotheories of Dutch‐Moroccan Immigrant Parents in the Netherlands
Ethnotheories of immigrant parents residing in the Netherlands are reshaped in response to the multiple and diverse educational practices they come in contact with after migration. Network analyses of "parenting relationships" of first generation Dutch-Moroccan parents living in the Netherlands show that they borrow from diverse resources including professionals and nonprofessionals in their construction of new ethnotheories. Through media as wel…
The Century of the Participating Child
Engaging children in social participation naturally requires a loving, caring and respectful pedagogical environment. By exhibiting and modelling these attitudes, adults can provide children with the sense of trust and safety necessary for the give and take of participation. Developed as a central concept of modern pedagogy, participation could avoid the historical, social and personal pitfalls of infantilization. Participation bridges the gap be…
Transitional Journeys Into and Out of Extremism. A Biographical Approach
This article describes an empirical study into processes of homegrown radicalization and de-radicalization of young people. Researchers in Denmark and the Netherlands set out to answer the question regarding what pathways in and out of extremism (mainly far-right or Islamist) look like “from the inside.” The analysis is informed by grounded theory, based on interviews (N = 34) with “formers” and their family members on their life courses. The stu…
Children's experiences and perceptions of street culture, parental supervision, and parental mediation in an urban neighborhood
Local street cultures may appear more or less “extreme,” depending on several contextual factors. Using focus groups, the current study aimed to explore what children, aged 7 to 12 years, think of the assumption that parents play an important role on the street to increase safety in the public domain. Involvement of parents can either be helpful or contribute to escalation of the conflict. Children's biggest concern was that parents are not able …
Youth Initiated Mentors
The present study evaluates the Youth Initiated Mentoring (YIM) approach in which families and youth care professionals collaborate with an informal mentor, who is someone adolescents (aged twelve to twenty-three) nominate from their own social network. The informal mentor can be a relative, neighbour or friend, who is a confidant and spokesman for the youth and a co-operation partner for parents and professionals. This approach fits with the int…
Participant Recruitment through Social Media
Social media are useful facilitators when recruiting hidden populations for research. In our research on youth and radicalization, we were able to find and contact young people with extreme ideals through Facebook. In this article, we discuss our experiences using Facebook as a tool for finding respondents who do not trust researchers. Facebook helped us recruit youths with extreme Islamic and extreme left-wing ideals. We conclude by discussing t…
Parental reaction towards radicalization in young people
This paper focuses on radicalization from a parenting perspective; we propose an approach that sees radicalization as a possibility in adolescent development, and as part of the interaction with the adolescent's social environment and socialization. The aim of the study is to discover how parents react when their adolescent develops extreme ideals. Using 55 in‐depth interviews with young people who have extreme ideals and their parents, the paren…
Neither Villains Nor Victims
This study questions whether the perspectives of security and intelligence serve educators well enough in the early stages of radicalisation. Assigned to signal deviant behaviour, educators are unwittingly drawn into a villain-victim imagery of their students. This imagery seems to impede a genuine educational outlook on radicalisation. Key notions of this outlook may be ‘critically addressing ideals’ and ‘forming pedagogical coalitions’
The Hidden Curriculum of Youth Policy
Youth policy is more than a mere response to the actual behavior of children, but it is equally influenced by values and beliefs of policy makers. These values are however rarely made explicit and, therefore, the authors refer to them as 'the hidden curriculum' of youth policy. The study investigation explicates this hidden curriculum by empirically analyzing policy reports and interviews with policy makers. The study design is based on an existi…
Ideals adrift
These days, the radicalization of young people is above all viewed as a security risk. Almost all research into this phenomenon has been carried out from a legal, criminological or socio-psychological perspective with a focus on detecting and containing the risks posed by radicalization. In the light of the political developments since September 11, 2001, this is entirely understandable but perhaps not altogether wise. Research and theory develop…

Do Parents Think It Takes a Village? Parents’ Attitudes Towards Nonparental Adults’ Involvement in the Upbringing and Nurture of Children
The current study explored parents’ attitudes towards nonparental adults’ involvement in childrearing practices. Parents’ attitudes were operationalized in their willingness to share parenting responsibility and interest to participate in parenting activities. Data were collected through a quantitative survey with 1,090 parents from 17 Dutch neighborhoods. Results suggest that parents are ambivalent about involving others in childrearing practice…
From Evaluation to Interpretation
Impact studies of prevention programmes, in particular meta-analyses, usually interpret outcome and impact statistics as tests of an underlying theory of prevention. However, these programmes usually combine various interventions linked to different theoretical perspectives. Consequently, the effects of the programme can easily be misinterpreted.This article introduces an interpretation method that acknowledges the eclecticism of prevention pract…
Effects and side-effects of integrating care
Integration of care within the institutions in the Netherlands has resulted in withdrawal of other care providers. These side-effects lead to a new discussion on the real nature and benefits of an integrated mental health care system. Integration requires also a broadly shared vision on good care for the various target groups. This would require a radicalisation of the distinction between care providers as well as a recognition of the different g…
Someone who Treats you as an Ordinary Human Being … Homeless Youth Examine the Quality of Professional Care
In this article we describe a peer‐research project, in which nineteen homeless youngsters interviewed 190 of their ‘colleagues’ about the quality of professional care and the improvements that, according to them, should be made. The interviews were followed by discussion meetings with social workers and policy makers. The youngsters report mixed feelings about the professional care system. On the one hand they think they should do more themselve…
The Social Education Gap Report of a Dutch Peer-Consultation Project on Family Policy
Like their fellow Europeans, many Dutch citizens worry about the moral decay of their youth. Often the family is blamed; (other) parents have failed in their moral education. Recently the Dutch Government asked the present authors to advise them on family policy, taking young people's opinions into account. We asked a group of 24 pupils from vocational schools, aged 14 and 15 and from different ethnic origins, to interview ten classmates each on …
