Bomin Keum is a PhD student in the International CyberCrime Research Centre and School of Criminology at A片资源吧 (SFU). She completed her B.A. Honours in Criminology at SFU and her MPhil in Criminological Research at the University of Cambridge. Her previous work focused on pathways into violent extremism. Now, she studies where extremism can lead: toward learned helplessness, nihilism, disengagement, or something else. She is particularly interested in the memetic practices that enable the performative aspects of extremism, practices uniquely afforded in online spaces that provide affective and/or symbolic gratification鈥攁nd also, paradoxically, weariness and disillusionment.
