The New Prevent: Will It Work? Can It Work?’ Muslim Participation in Contemporary Governance Working Paper, No. 2,

O’Toole, Therese and Jones, Stephen and DeHanas, Daniel Nilsson (2011) The New Prevent: Will It Work? Can It Work?’ Muslim Participation in Contemporary Governance Working Paper, No. 2,. Project report. Centre for the Study of Ethnicity and Citizenship (KAR id:36881)

Abstract

The Prevent programme, also known as PVE (Preventing Violent Extremism), is the UK soft-counterterrorism agenda designed by the New Labour government to turn Muslim “hearts and minds” away from extremism. This working paper reviews some of the main critiques of Labour’s Prevent programme, and takes stock of the new Prevent Strategy issued by the Conservative-Liberal government in June 2011. It considers if the new Prevent Strategy is likely to succeed and, more fundamentally, if a Prevent strategy can succeed on its own terms.
