Which elements do the Arab Spring, the Indignados and Occupy Wall
Street have in common? How do they differ? What do they share with
social movements of the past? This book discusses the recent wave
of global mobilisations from an unusual angle, explaining what
aspects of protests spread from one country to another, how this
happened, and why diffusion occurred in certain contexts but not in
others. In doing this, the book casts light on the more general
mechanisms of protest diffusion in contemporary societies,
explaining how mobilisations travel from one country to another
and, also, from past to present times.Bridging different fields of
the social sciences, and covering a broad range of empirical cases,
this book develops new theoretical perspectives.
