People do not seem particularly swayed by incidents that share similarities with past country-experiences, but we should expect that citizens who have experienced large-scale terrorism in their home country are more easily convinced that borderline cases are acts of terrorism. (9/9)

Our findings have implications for understanding how the public reacts to messaging by news media and political elites after violent events. Large scale terrorism in one country can make citizens of other culturally proximate countries more susceptible to particular ways of framing violence. (8/9)

For the most part, these between-country differences are inconsistent with the notion that past country experiences weigh more strongly in peoples' views of what qualifies as acts of terrorism. (7/9)

We also find between-country differences. Norwegians, and to a lesser extent Swedes, are generally more likely than Icelanders to classify incidents as acts of terrorism. (6/9)

One possibility is that the right-wing extremist attack in Norway 22/7/2011 reshaped geographically and culturally proximate Nordic citizens views of who is a terrorist. (5/9)

However, while U.S. studies finds that Muslim perpetrators are most strongly associated with acts of terrorism it is right-wing extremist violence that stands out among Nordic citizens. (4/9)

Nordic citizens are fairly similar to Americans in their views of what terrorism is, indicating that it is the shared cultural and informational environment of Western countries that matters rather than a country’s past exposure to terrorism. (3/9)

Jon Kåre Skiple @jonkskiple.bsky.social · 10/01/2025

Results from survey experiments that builds on the design of Huff and Kertzer (2018), show a broad Nordic terrorism consensus, demonstrating the importance of violence, a high number of casualties, right-wing extremism and incidents motivated by policy change and hatred. (2/9)

New publication out in Terrorism and Political Violence, together with Jacob Sohlberg, @lukefield.bsky.social and Hulda Thórisdóttir. We study public perceptions of what qualifies as acts of terrorism across three Nordic countries with diverse terrorism experiences. (1/9) doi.org/10.1080/0954...
