British Academy funding for research on ideology and political violence

Dr Chanki Moon and Prof. Giovanni Travaglino have been awarded a British Academy/Leverhulme Small Research Grant to investigate what leads individuals who typically acquiesce to the status quo to endorse political violence.

The project, titled “Unpacking the Link between Ideology and the Endorsement of Political Violence: When and How Justifying the Status Quo Can Fuel Radicalization”, was awarded £10,000.
