Are We Living in a World That Creates More Extremists? | The Rundown

Описание: Neo-Nazi groups. ISIS. QAnon. They may not seem to have much in common. But they all promise connection, community, purpose. Are those things in short supply today? And if so, are we living in a world that’s more and more likely to produce extremists? Rundown producer Eric Bombicino tackles those questions and more with extremism researcher Amarnath Amarasingam. Then, Kate Mulligan, associate professor at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health and the founding scientific director of the Canadian Institute for Social Prescribing, discusses how loneliness can create fertile ground for radicalization and how something called social prescribing could help solve the problem.
