When the police responded to the demonstration with brutality, the protests exploded in size and force, quickly becoming a massive statement of opposition to the Turkish regime.

Gould-Wartofsky. This book was released on 2015. The Occupiers available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In the fall of 2011, motivated by the lack of a meaningful response to the global financial crisis and a paralysis of democratic politics, a small group of protesters gathered in Zuccotti Park in New York City. The Occupy Wall Street movement would go on to inspire camps in nearly 1,500 towns and cities, all of which were ultimately forcibly evicted by police. Without illusion but with solid evidence, The Occupiers answers fundamental questions about the movement and serves as a corrective to some common myths and misconceptions on both ends of the political spectrum.

Download and read online ebook Media Practices, Social Movements, and Performativity write by Susanne Foellmer. This book was released on 2017-09-13. Media Practices, Social Movements, and Performativity available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. As individuals incorporate new forms of media into their daily routines, these media transform individuals’ engagement with networks of heterogeneous actors. Using the concept of media practices, this volume looks at processes of social and political transformation in diverse regions of the world to argue that media change and social change converge on a redefinition of the relations of individuals to larger collective bodies. To this end, contributors examine new collective actors emerging in the public arena through digital media or established actors adjusting to a diversified communication environment. The book offers an important contribution to a vibrant, transdisciplinary, and international field of research emerging at the intersections of communication, performance and social movement studies.

Download and read online ebook Revolutionary Egypt write by Reem Abou-El-Fadl. This book was released on 2015-06-05. Revolutionary Egypt available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In 2011 the world watched as Egyptians rose up against a dictator. Observers marveled at this sudden rupture, and honed in on the heroes of Tahrir Square. Revolutionary Egypt analyzes this tumultuous period from multiple perspectives, bringing together experts on the Middle East from disciplines as diverse as political economy, comparative politics and social anthropology. Drawing on primary research conducted in Egypt and across the world, this book analyzes the foundations and future of Egypt’s revolution. Considering the revolution as a process, it looks back over decades of popular resistance to state practices and predicts the waves still to come. It also confidently places Egypt’s revolutionary process in its regional and international contexts, considering popular contestation of foreign policy trends as well as the reactions of external actors. It draws connections between Egyptians’ struggles against domestic despotism and their reactions to regional and international processes such as economic liberalization, Euro-American interventionism and similar struggles further afield. Revolutionary Egypt is an essential resource for scholars and students of social movements and revolution, comparative politics, and Middle East politics, in particular Middle East foreign policy and international relations.
