David Bernard Capitanchik is a former academic and e-learning development officer. He appears to have been primarily interested in Jewish and Israeli politics until the mid-1990s when he emerged as a media terrorism expert. His role as a 'terror expert' has largely occurred after he ceased to be an academic.
Contents
Education and Career
- Aberdeen University, Senior Lecturer in Politics (1967-1993)
- Aberdeen College, Strategic Development Executive (c.1995-1999)
- The Robert Gordon University, Project Development Officer with the Department of eLearning (2000- December 2004, at which point he retired)[1]
Academic Writings
Capitanchik was most active as an academic during the 1980s and '90s. The academic database ISI Web of Knowledge list 48 papers authored by Capitanchik since 1981. Only four of those were published this decade, the last of which was in 2003. The great majority are book reviews published in International Affairs (23) and the Jewish Journal of Sociology (13); mostly on Israeli politics and society.
Corporate oil connections
A Lloyd's Lists New Release in 1995 reveals that Capitanchik hosted an ad hoc radio station Offshore Europe Radio, which was set up specifically for the Offshore Europe '95 exhibition and conference in Aberdeen in September 1995.[2]
Media presence
Capitanchik first appeared in the print media in 1996 advocating censorship of the internet because of "increasing racism, xenophobia, intolerance and bigotry"[3] This related to a report he had written for the Institute for Jewish Policy Research with Michael Whine of the Board of Deputies of British Jews on the use of the internet by extreme right-wing groups.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
Even before his first appearance in print media it would seem that Capitanchik had already developed a TV and radio presence beecause he is refered to in the editor's notes of a 1996 press release as "a frequent radio and TV commentator on terrorism and Middle East affairs".[4]
