Members of the Civic Solidarity Platform Working Group on Counter-Terrorism, Anti-Extremism and Human Rights present a joint report on counter-extremism policies in Russia, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic and Tajikistan.

Russian approach to countering extremism has been adopted by several post-Soviet countries. To the greatest extent, this applies to Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic and Tajikistan, both in their adoption of Russian legal innovations, and in the scale of their law enforcement activities. Accordingly, our report focuses on the experience of these four countries. We sought to draw attention to commonalities as well as differences in the regulatory framework and in the law enforcement dynamics.
The English version of the report in full is available here.
