Coverage by international broadcasters and other media of the terrorist attacks in Paris in November 2015 made extensive use of mainstream diversity discourse to describe the victims and venues targeted by jihadists, emphasizing the unique preferences, unconventional life plans and individuality of victims. Based on sociological accounts, this paper sees that discourse as part and parcel of an individualistic ideology of diversity, which celebrates individual uniqueness and espouses relativism on the value of differences across individuals and groups. The two studies presented here address the consequences of framing the events in Paris in individual diversity (ID) ideological terms and question their impact on lay representations of the events and on support for antiterrorist policies by Greek university students. In Study 1, personal endorsement of ID ideology was associated with indirect support for strict border controls. Study 2 manipulated descriptions of victims and found that priming ID themes directly produced increased support for strict border controls and an increased understanding of the main symbolic target of the attacks as an assault against the West. The results extend the past work on the effects of ID ideas on lay representations of social discrimination.

个人主义多样性话语对“巴塔克兰世代”的违反直觉的影响

国际广播公司和其他媒体对2015年11月在巴黎发生的恐怖袭击的报道广泛使用主流多样性话语来描述受害者和圣战分子所针对的地点，强调受害者的独特偏好，非常规的生活计划和个性。基于社会学的解释，本文认为话语是个人主义多元化意识形态的组成部分，该思想倡导个人独特性，并主张相对主义关注个人和群体之间差异的价值。这里介绍的两项研究探讨了以个人多样性（ID）意识形态术语来框定巴黎事件的后果，并质疑它们对事件的俗套表现以及希腊大学生对反恐政策的支持的影响。在研究1中，个人对ID意识形态的认可与间接支持严格的边境管制有关。研究2操纵了对受害者的描述，发现以身份识别为主题的主题直接增加了对严格边境管制的支持，并增加了对作为袭击西方的攻击的主要象征性目标的理解。结果扩展了过去关于ID观念对社会歧视的外行表征的影响的工作。
