Are Right Wing Extremists in Scandinavia a Threat to Government Personnel and the Societal Mainstream. A Prognosis.

摘要

Violence from right wing extremists has been part of daily life in Scandinavia since the 1940s. From the 1950s and 1960s onwards, new ethnic minorities in the form of labor migrants arrived in the Scandinavian countries. Sweden received hundreds of thousands; in Norway and Denmark, on the other hand, labor migrants did not arrive in significant numbers until the 1970s and then on a far smaller scale than in Sweden. As a result of this immigration, tension and violence erupted in the countries. Traditional violence like firebombing of refugee centers, beating up of immigrants, and more grave violence was common in all three countries.
