About Me

Dr. Ariel Koch is a member of the Middle East Network Analysis Desk at the Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies at Tel Aviv University. His specialization is in the study of extremist movements in Western liberal-democracies, and his research focuses on the nexus between Islamist extremism, right-wing extremism, and left-wing extremism. The interaction between these actors is reflected in the articles he authored, and which focused on issues such as modern-day Crusaders, the echoes of online Jihadi propaganda, and trends in recruitment and mobilization of right-wing and left-wing extremists.
