Fatemiyoun : En begreppsutredande och teoriprövande studie av begreppet ”terrorism” applicerat på Fatemiyoun

Nuri, Mahdi January 2020 (has links)
During the last decades the word ”terrorism” has a whole different meaning. Brutality has increased and terrorists of today show no mercy on civilians and innocent people.Fatemiyoun, the Iran-supported brigade (Afghani citizens) have immigrated to Iran to take part in war in a third country, Syria. This type of military activity has created great anxiety in Afghanistan and in the rest of the middle East.In this study the concept ”terrorism”will be used in regard of the Fatemiyoun activities and the implementation of threat and violence in Syria.The issue focused on in this study will be if Fatemiyon can be regarded a terrororganisation or not.I will be using two definitions and two theories. These definitions and theories are applied to actual material concerning the presence of Fatemiyoun in Syria. This is connected to the IRGC and the Iranian government's political concern to expand shiism.There are already some studies on the connection between states and terror groups. The choice to analyze militia groups has favoured the study as Fatemiyoun is a militia group and as a result Fatemiyoun is regarded a terrorist organisation in these theories.Fatemiyoun as a new phenomenon is also a motive for further studies concerning the relation between Iran and its militia groups.

Beyond the dichotomies of a coercion and voluntary recruitment, Afghan unaccompanied minors unveil their recruitment process in Iran

Ali, Rami January 2018 (has links)
By shedding light on accounts from unaccompanied Afghan asylum-seeking minors in Sweden who were child soldiers in Syria, this thesis explores and examines their narratives and their involvement in the civil war in Syria. The research aims to create a deeper understanding of how these children themselves made sense of their participation in the war by answering the following questions: How were the children approached by the recruiters? What kind of reasons for joining the war are put forward by the recruiters and what strategies do the children encounter: a) economic; b) identity formation; c) social deprivation; d) feeling of vulnerability; e) militarization; f) mental development; g) ideology/ religious-sectarian; or all together? How do the children perceive these encounters and make sense of their recruitment to the Shiite Fatemiyoun Brigade? To which extent has the ideology of Shi’ism played an important role for them in joining the Syrian War? This is a qualitative study based on in-depth interviews which combines procedures from two approaches and techniques: an ethnographic approach and a narrative approach that explores the interviewees’ experiences in a period of time and also generates detailed insights. Despite the fact that none of the respondents testified for being recruited at gunpoint or having been ill-treated, the respondents emphasized that they were forced to join due to the bad circumstances they were living in. In addition, many similarities with other cases regarding child soldiering in several countries have been explored in this thesis, for instance factors related to the socio- economic context and the experiences that are related to the children’s development processes. Differences can be located in various details regarding ideologies and indoctrination since the respondents did not share the politico-religious purposes of the recruiters.
