COMING SOON: Updated RTV dataset and new trend report. Our data shows that almost 50% of all severe far-right violent attacks in 2021 were committed by gangs or unorganized groups. 92% of these attacks were spontaneous.
COMING SOON: Updated RTV dataset and new trend report. Our data for 2021 shows two fatal far-right attacks in Western Europe (Germany and Spain). Both fatal attacks were committed by lone actors, triggered by spontaneous confrontations.
COMING SOON: Updated RTV dataset and new trend report. Our data shows stable levels of spontaneous far-right attacks, but decreasing numbers of premeditated attacks between 2015 and 2021.
