The rise of right wing extremism
The rise of right-wing extremism is happening all around us, yet it does not dominate Australia’s national security discourse in the way “Islamic extremism” did in the years after 9/11.
The Australia Institute spoke to counter-terrorism expert Dr Anne Aly MP, to help us unpack the nature of the problem and if we’re doing enough to combat it. This was recorded live on Wednesday 10 February 2021, as part of the Australia Institute’s webinar series.
