In this monitor report right-wing extremism, attention is paid to the development of the extreme right-wing field in the Netherlands in 2020. This is done in a longitudinal context, whereby we always place the research period within the framework of a longer development. We first pay attention to the definition and demarcation of the term extreme right. We then provide insight into the manifestations and manifestations of the extreme right. Finally, we will discuss various forms of (government)response to the phenomenon.
Open sources have been used for the compilation of this overview, to a large extent primary sources: Publications, websites and other digital media channels of extreme right-wing organizations and their supporters, conversations with (voormalige) right-wing extremists and observations of public activities (demonstraties) of these organizations. The collected data was further analyzed and framed using existing literature on right-wing extremism in the Netherlands and compared and interpreted with insights from other observers of the extreme right field..

Soort Uitgave:
Beschrijving:

This report shows that the number of racist and anti-Semitic incidents in 2014 increased compared 2013. The explanation for the sharp increase in the number of racist incidents is unclear. One possible explanation could be a hardening in the political and social climate after the local elections in March 2014. However, the large number of reports against Geert Wilders is not included in this report. The increase in the number of anti-Semitic incidents may be explained by the intensification of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the summer of 2014. In those months were in the Netherlands more anti-Semitic incidents. Due to the small number of incidents, we can draw conclusions however here. Opposite the aforementioned increase is difficult to explain decrease in the number of racist and anti-Semitic abuse incidents. A possible explanation could be that the type of profanity used fashion sensitive, allowing some epithets with anti-Semitic or racist connotation in 2014 less were used.

Three other points are covered in this report. The first is that anti-Semitic violence and racist violence take place within a different dynamics. The main difference is the reason: in anti-Semitic violence were much more often anti-Semitic intentions than that racist intentions in racial violence gave rise. The second point is that, Despite the stable small size of right-wing extremist, We note with some caution that extreme right violence appears to be increasing slightly. The third point is that the Prosecution has indicated from 2015 commune-offenses discriminatory aspect to take in its registration. Because of this, we expect 2016 a strong improvement in the understanding of the settlement of discrimination incidents.

In het navolgende komen alle klassiek extreemrechtse organisaties die in 2013 actief waren in Nederland kort aan de orde. Nederland kent verschillende extreemrechtse groepen. Die onderscheiden zich lang niet allemaal langs ideologische lijnen. Vaker gaat het om groepen die zich van andere groepen onderscheiden door onderlinge ruzies, incompatibilité d’humeur en persoonlijke conflicten. Maar deze verschillende groepen zijn wel in twee ideologische categorieën in te delen. We maken een onderscheid tussen identitaire formaties, die zich vooral beroepen op een Nederlandse identiteit, en neonazi’s, die zich meer richten op de oude nationaalsocialistische idealen van het Derde Rijk. Na de bespreking van de ontwikkelingen rond deze groepen in 2013 geven wij een beredeneerde schatting van het aantal leden van genoemde formaties. Tot slot kijken we kort naar de veranderende interactie in 2013 tussen klassiek extreemrechtse formaties en de Partij voor de Vrijheid (PVV).

Politicians present themselves to their statements about ethnic or religious
to account for minority groups to court? Or is this
accountability to take place solely in the public debate?
This question can also be raised for cartoonists,
columnists, or comedians. This is an important social
question: where does the boundary of free speech
and start of the ban on discrimination?
That limit is not static, but depending on time, place and circumstances.
In the Netherlands plays this clash of rights expressly
in the legal prosecution of PVV leader Geert Wilders. Begin
2010 is the persecution ordered by the Amsterdam Court. De
lawsuit is of great importance for the determination of the boundary between
two fundamental rights in the Netherlands, but does not determine everything. Likewise
factor is that Netherlands to international human rights treaties
has committed and must abide by the Charter of Fundamental Rights
of the European Union.
Related to this discussion is to find and identify the
border between victim and perpetrator in incidents in which racism or discrimination
plays a role. In everyday practice shows role reversal
easily to be able to take place. Muslims have been victims
of Islamophobic violence, but radical Muslims may also be offenders
terrorist offenses. Sometimes commit extreme right youth violence,
because they have been victims of earlier immigrant violence.
In the aforementioned example of Geert Wilders this goes double

Fortuyn's famous slogan "I say what I think" has not in recent years

about the limits of freedom of expression. Begin 2006, during
global outcry over the Danish Mohammed cartoons', pleaded vvd-
MP Ayaan Hirsi Ali for "the right to beledigen'.1 A Danish

the shape of a bomb with lit fuse. This cartoon was shown 2008
a starring role in the film Wilders, Fitna, which already has also led to
heated discussions about the limits of freedom of expression. Now That
which borders have shifted and that more can be said than before
seems clear. A striking example is the uproar over the
police raid in May 2008 a Dutch cartoonist 'Gregory
Shot in the neck "which for years has been criticized Islam. The Arrest
the cartoonist, who was suspected of the prohibitions on discrimination
to have violated, aroused great public and political outrage.
Cartoons should be able to, as was widely argued, regardless of
their content. The question of where the limits of free expression than
it should be, remained in the background. However, in discussions
in recent years increasingly argued that the border should
be drawn at inciting violence.
But, as others say, without inciting violence large
harm be done, because the expanded freedoms of expression
influence on the occurrence of intolerance and discrimination. As argument
for this position are indications for a relatively high level
Islamophobia cited in Netherlands. From a survey showed
that more than half of the Dutch, non-Muslim school age
fourteen- to sixteen year olds are negative relative
of moslims.2 As one of the causes is negative image
genoemd: "Negative stereotypes of Muslims and negative clichés
of islam, negative messages from parents and best friend
about Muslims and Islam, and the belief that Muslims are a threat

With the Racism & Extremism seeks various forms of racism, extremism and anti-Semitism - and reactions to these phenomena - to
monitor and issue periodic reports. First we will look at the phenomena: how do racism, extremism and anti-Semitism in the Dutch society. One could look at the expression, such as politically organized racism, and to the exclusion form, eg catering discrimination. Some symptoms are limited by their nature not to the Dutch territory, such as discrimination on the Internet. In such cases, the extra-territorial context is taken into account. Fixed pattern in the monitoring study is the attempt as much as possible to identify different kinds of victims and perpetrators. This exercise can relate to both natives and foreigners, including the latter let divide again in various minority groups. The response to racism, extremism and anti-Semitism can be different in nature, from educational to legal. Usually the nature of the response depending on the appearance of the discrimination, the category of victims and the background of the perpetrators. In addition, some forms of response to coexist or even synergistic. Regular monitoring of the phenomena, victims, the perpetrators and the response serves several purposes. In this way we try to contribute to the understanding of the fight against racism, extremism and anti-Semitism. Furthermore, accumulation of knowledge rather than the fixed system and the periodicity of the study.

The problem of racist and extremist manifestations among young people in the year 2004 and especially after the murder of Theo van Gogh - 2 november 2004 - Boomed. In the first few months of 2005 have called Lonsdale youth stood almost daily in the media interest. It is a well-known, but to a much lesser extent known phenomenon: many questions to nature, extent and dynamics must be left with no answer.
About the name 'Lonsdale youth' has been much to do. Lonsdale is a British clothing brand that is popular among ravers, even those with extreme right, racist orientation. These cronies commit their clothing brands - not just Lonsdale, but also Pitbull and Hooligan - often wear flashy, so that these brands will act as an external characteristic of these young people. Extreme right, racist cronies were then apparently become so iconic that a reversal has occurred: with 'Lonsdale youth' were not so gradually youth indicated that Lonsdale wear, but the extreme right, racist young ones. Given the seriousness and extent of incidents which these young people attracted attention is the contagion understandable. The well-known sociologist Goffman would speak of "a spoiled identity '. As a result, many young people, however, are also affected wrongly, to say nothing of the clothing brand Lonsdale, that can not be held responsible for abuses of those who wear Lonsdale, making the brand has acquired a negative stigma. Some are of the opinion that therefore should rest a taboo on the name Lonsdale youth. There's something to be said, but negative imaging is to influence our mind and not simply to conceal by giving it another name. We expect that the name Lonsdale youth of limited duration will be, though it is now impossible to foresee exactly when the expiration date has expired.

On the run, he shot at police, which gave chase. Finally the perpetrator was shot in the leg and he could be arrested. In the first two weeks after the murder it became clear that it was not in the case of the killer acting alone, but that there was a network of radical Muslims, where a considerable and concrete threat of terror. As a result of this threat were several MPs

It is based on a fixed yardstick 'the balance of the principal manifestations and incidents of racial discrimination, racism and right-wing extremism, and the development of strategies to combat. The reports are politicians, directors and representatives of civil society put in a position to reflect on the problems and come to solving strategies. The reports can contribute by their systematic and periodic character of accumulation of knowledge and understanding. It will also provide insight into developments that occur in the longer term. That applies not only to the recent period but also for the future. The monitor can also contribute to early identification of relevant, new developments. Finally, the report could be helpful in answering the numerous practical questions on this subject from

Many people would call this a report about 'Gypsies'. However, among Roma and Sinti is generally not common to use the term "Gypsy". However, this is the term that Roma and Sinti are referred to in common parlance. In addition, not everyone is aware of the difference between 'Gypsies' and Travellers. The term refers to the way of living caravan dwellers, while Roma and Sinti should be regarded as an ethnic group. The term "Gypsies" has for the Roma and Sinti community a strong negative connotation and should refer to the German words for "itinerant crook ' (pulling crooks). The above is enough reason for us to speak in this study of Roma and Sinti. Op 1 May 2004 the European Union enlarged to include countries from Central- and Eastern Europe. This raised the question of whether these countries provide ample opportunity and protection to the residents within their borders Roma and Sinti. It is well known that Roma and Sinti in these countries occupy an unenviable position. Therefore, from various European institutions - including the Council of Europe - repeatedly called upon to help this population and additional protection against discrimination. However, the question arises as to whether the situation of Roma and Sinti in Western Europe is much better, or that there is less attention to them because the population is so much smaller. And to what extent these people are confronted with discrimination and unequal treatment Netherlands? It is this last question we want to answer in this study.

The basis for the current discrimination is prohibited by the International Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Racial Discrimination le (IVUR). This treaty is in 1966 ratified by the Netherlands and resulted in 1971 new prohibitions on discrimination in the Penal Code. At that time, many still believed that the Dutch parliamentarian situation did not give rise to pass such legislation. We now know better. The debate over thirty years ago in the Lower House took place on the border between freedom of expression and non-discrimination is still relevant. Today it is sometimes argued that the law too much in favor of non-discrimination is (been). Some even believe that the elimination of this discrimination restrictions prefer verdient.1 It is in this regard important to stress that the prohibition of discrimination do not have their basis in Section 1 Constitution, but in the IVUR. The removal of criminal prohibitions would have immediate consequences for the performance by the Netherlands of the Convention. It should be borne in mind also what has been the background of the implementation of treaties such as the ICERD: the international community has sought to enshrine such rights through such treaties that individual states could no longer evade this without compromising the requirements of a democratic state.
