TY - JOUR PY - 2016// TI - Violent tendencies of the radical right in Canada: time series analysis and influence factors JO - Canadian journal of criminology and criminal justice A1 - Bérubé, Maxime SP - 221 EP - 250 VL - 58 IS - 2 N2 - The lack of right-wing political parties at the national scale is, among other things, a reason why only a few studies have looked at the factors shaping far right violent incidents in Canada. In other geopolitical contexts, however, many researchers have identified economic conditions, social developments, and political trends as sources of explanation for this radical tendency. In order to gain a better understanding of the Canadian phenomenon, we identified 241 incidents of right-wing violence between 1977 and 2010, on which we conducted ARIMA time-series analysis. Our study shows the relevance of political conditions for estimating the variations in incidents of extreme-right violence. Moreover, it demonstrates that all the explanatory factors are differently linked with specific incident rates based on racial, religious, and homophobic exclusion.
