ABSTRACT

he nonviolent activities of extremists have the capacity to shed important light on how such groups think and frame the world around them. This paper provides a comparative insight into the framing activities of Islamic State and white power (WP) groups through an analysis of the song lyrics that have emerged from these scenes. In doing so, we seek to understand the role that culture, particularly music, plays in constructing the worldview of both white supremacists and jihadists. Through analyzing song lyrics we explain how those writing and performing the music can shape the contexts in which participants operate. What emerges is that despite differences in the stated belief systems of Islamic State and white supremacists, the ways in which the underlying worldview is constructed is similar. Both focus on highlighting grievances and see their own in-group as facing real and prominent threats, often due to liberal values. Both see Jewish people as a corrupting force in the world, and both have a clear direction on overcoming such threats with direct calls to action. Both groups tap into global narratives against multiculturalism, globalization, and the global international order, which they view as inherently damaging to their own group interests.

“信仰的士兵”:白人力量歌曲和伊斯兰国纳希德的比较分析

摘要

极端分子的非暴力活动有能力揭示这些团体如何思考和构建他们周围的世界。本文通过分析从这些场景中出现的歌词,提供了对伊斯兰国和白人权力 (WP) 团体的框架活动的比较洞察。在此过程中,我们试图了解文化,尤其是音乐,在构建白人至上主义者和圣战分子的世界观中所扮演的角色。通过分析歌词,我们解释了创作和演奏音乐的人如何塑造参与者运作的环境。出现的情况是,尽管伊斯兰国和白人至上主义者的既定信仰体系存在差异,但潜在世界观的构建方式是相似的。两者都专注于强调不满,并认为自己的群体面临着真实而突出的威胁,通常是由于自由主义价值观。两者都将犹太人视为世界上的腐败力量,并且都明确指出要通过直接呼吁采取行动来克服此类威胁。这两个群体都利用了反对多元文化主义、全球化和全球国际秩序的全球叙事,他们认为这从本质上损害了他们自己的群体利益。
