Abstract

We address the legal and policy framework of deradicalisation in Finland by taking the division into into ‘implicit’ and ‘explicit’ policies as our starting point. Many Finnish deradicalisation measures are implicit ones, not purposedly targeted to potentially radicalising individuals or groups but related to the policies of the welfare state. The Finnish explicit deradicalisation policy is based on a combination of social and security issues and a pragmatic approach. The critical aspect of the policy is its ‘projectification’, or reliance on fixed-term projects, which affects its continuity. The impact of the new right-wing coalition government on the policy remains open.
