“…The analyses show that people distinguish from among different groups, and that support for targeting threatening or undemocratic groups is higher than the support for targeting other groups (this dovetails with the findings by Christensen and Aars 2017;Marcus, Sullivan, et al 1995;Sniderman et al 2014). Accordingly, the respondents were more supportive of targeting right-wing extremists and Islamists than they were of targeting Muslims.…”

This thesis would not have been possible without the help and backing of a great number of people. First, I want to thank my two outstanding supervisors, Kari Steen-Johnsen and Knut Heidar who have helped me write what is here today. Knut has given invaluable feedback on never-ending drafts and revisions. Kari has always had the time for questions, for discussing possible ways forward and for shooting down my newest distracting idea for some interesting research. She has been incredibly flexible, given important feedback on short notice, and somehow always found something positive to say. I always leave her office in a better mood than when I enter. I have had the great privilege of collaborating with colleagues working on the same themes through the Disruptive Events Project. Marte Slagsvold Winsvold and Bernard Enjolras have always made time for one more discussion or reading of a draft, giving me new perspectives and insights. I have also learned a lot from discussions with, and feedback from, Shana Gadarian, Francisco Herreros and Atte Oksanen at our meetings around the world. As a lucky matter of coincidence two of my best friends were writing their dissertations when I started on this thesis. Atle Hennum Haugsgjerd has been a important friend (and colleague) through my university life and this thesis bears many signs of his influence. His importance cannot be overstated. Andreas Kokkvold Tveit has likewise been an important discussion partner, commenter and "office mate" at our writing sessions at cafés around Oslo and at Blindern. My colleagues at the institute have always given of their time when asked, and most of the work here have been presented and discussed at the institute's "Politikkseminar" under the auspices of Jo Saglie.

“…The first finding is in clear support for the differentiation between different groups (H2a). The respondents do not support counterterrorism measures against all groups to the same extent, and this seems to follow the expected pattern where there is more support for targeting Islamists and right-wing extremists and less support for targeting Muslims (see also Christensen & Aars, 2017). Muslims are thus not conflated with Islamists and do not seem to be perceived as a threatening group.…”

“…Few studies exist that research the support for security measures targeting different groups. Christensen and Aars (2017) find that Norwegians support surveillance of threatening groups such as Islamic fundamentalists more than they support surveillance of comparatively democratic groups such as a Muslim congregation. Therefore, support for surveillance seems to be lower for groups granted extensive civil liberties, according…”

Terrorism is tightly connected to the Muslim minority in the West, and this could lead to counterterrorism measures targeting Muslims specifically. This paper uses a unique survey experiment fielded in the US, France, Finland, and Norway to study the levels of support for targeting groups that vary in both their majority versus minority status and in their connection to terrorism. Threatening news stories are used to investigate whether or not the level of support is affected by right-wing extremist and Islamist terrorism. Finally, the moderating effect of attitudes toward immigration is studied. People support counterterrorism measures that target threatening groups (Islamists and right-wing extremists) more than those that do not (Muslims), but this is not the case for those people who are against immigration. When people read threatening news stories, there is an increase in support for counterterrorism measures in general, even measures that target groups unrelated to the stories.

“…Forskning har knyttet innvandringen til økt intoleranse (de Zavala, Guerra & Simão, 2017), større utrygghet (Roth, 2016) og økt kulturell avstand (Hainmueller & Hopkins, 2014). Spesielt muslimer oppfattes å ha verdier som står i konflikt med normene og verdiene i en liberal og sekulaer stat (Citrin & Sides, 2008;Christensen & Aars, 2017). Myndighetenes vektlegging av den kulturelle dimensjonen kommer blant annet til uttrykk ved at språk-og kunnskapstester i mottakerlandets historie og kulturarv mange steder har blitt innført som et vilkår for å få innvilget statsborgerskap (Citrin & Sides, 2008).…”

Are Norwegians' expectations concerning the future size of the immigrant population affecting their attitudes towards immigrants? Experiments from the United States show that exposing respondents to projections in which the white population drops below 50 % increases intolerance toward minorities and immigrants. Based on projections of the population composition in Norway calculated by Statistics Norway, we also ask if Norwegians' attitudes towards immigrants are affected by information on increased ethnic diversity. Our analysis is based on a survey experiment where the respondents are exposed to different immigration scenarios by 2060. Our results indicate that increased predicted immigration is associated with a stronger conviction among the respondents that immigrants abuse the social welfare systems. However, this effect is not particularly strong. In other policy areas, such as the importance of Norwegian culture, social security, and immigrants' rights in the labor market, we find no effects of the different immigrant scenarios.
