We all start out the same. Whether born in Damascus or Detroit, human beings begin life with similar DNA, common instincts for survival and a basic desire to learn and explore.So why do some young men and women grow up with plans to promote peace and prosperity, while others set out to harm or kill others? Every day we hear of people who try to disrupt our world, often violently. So what, exactly, is happening to our youth? Extremists never stop trying to find the next young recruit. They are smarter, more technically savvy and better-organized than we give them credit for. What are they doing well and what can we learn from these insights? Are we organized the right way to fight extremists? Are we thinking the right way? Are we basing decisions on the most effective models? Pearson and Ullah join as co-authors to provide a mashup of their combined expertise -- years of shaping behavior for the world's top brands with years of countering terrorism. Inspired by classes taught at the U.S. State Department on counterterrorism and dealing with disinformation campaigns, the authors have written a book that is part call to action and part innovation lab for those who want to make a difference. They are joined by a wide range of global leaders who provide their insights related to hate and extremism. The book's goal is to trigger new ideas on how leaders can partner worldwide to make our world a safer and more productive place over the long-term. One team, one world.… (más)

I received this as an ARC. It turned out not to be what I expected. I was hoping for more of a roadmap for individuals hoping to counter hate.

There is a scene in the movie, 'Patriot Games' where Jack Ryan is sifting through piles of intelligence reports on his desk, trying to piece together an IRA terrorist attack in London, in which Ryan kills one of the terrorists. In this scene, it is evident that many intelligence reports are needed to complete the puzzle. And finding the right facts to match other events and with the correct timing is much of what an analyst does.

That's how I felt reading 'Counter Hate'. The authors wrote the book in a way that made me feel as the reader that I was part of piecing together the 'terrorism puzzle' - an assisting analyst, so to speak, and some how helping in reducing the amount of hate in this world.

The book concentrates on hate from within the Islamic terrorist groups - which may have been by design, however, it would have helped to expand the issue to other hate groups - which there are plenty to pick from.

Although the authors should be commended on their efforts in putting together facts and possible solutions to solve the issues of hate, ultimately, there is only One that can solve hate between peoples. Only Divine intervention in man's affairs will totally eliminate hate.

This book helped me to widen my horizons with understanding hate and how it impacts so many aspects of our world. I have passed it on to some of my professors in my university's education department. ( )

The authors look at how people learn to hate and offer some prescriptions on countering this development. They show how, through silence and apathy, society contributes to this process of looking at "other" people negatively through the lenses of gender, race, or religion, a process that develops during the formative years up to the age of about 25, and how the use of soft-power tools by governments rather than reliance on military responses is the best approach to dealing with the phenomenon.

The authors have provided a thoughtful analysis on hate and technology in the 21st Century. Some of the content seemed cliche to the point of a self help book, but there were real world applications throughout the text. While most of the content is focuded on Islamic terrorism and hate, I found no implicit bias that would slant the context of the book. This book would serve as a good suplimental text in courses on sociology, psychology, and religion. ( )
