Clandestine Political Violence compares four types of clandestine
political violence: left-wing (in Italy and Germany), right-wing
(in Italy), ethnonationalist (in Spain), and religious
fundamentalist (in Islamist clandestine organizations). Oriented
toward theory building, Donatella della Porta develops her own
definition of clandestine political violence. Building on the most
recent developments in social movement studies, della Porta
proposes an original interpretative model. Using a unique research
design, she singles out some common causal mechanisms at the onset,
during the persistence, and at the demise of clandestine political
violence. The development of the phenomenon is located within the
interactions among social movements, countermovements, and the
state. She pays particular attention to the ways in which the
different actors cognitively construct the reality they act upon.
The internal dynamics of the clandestine political organizations
are devoted special attention. Based on original empirical research
as well as existing research in many languages, this book is rich
in empirical evidence on some of the most crucial cases of
clandestine political violence.
