The strategic interactions between protestors and their targets
shape the world around us in profound ways. The editors and
contributors to Protesters and Their Targets-all leading scholars
in the study of social movements-look at why movements do what they
do and why their interactions with other societal actors turn out
as they do. They recognize that targets are not stationary but
react to the movement and require the movement to react back. This
edited collection analyzes how social movements select their
targets, movement-target interactions, and the outcomes of those
interactions. Case studies examine school closures in Sweden, the
U.S. labor movement, Bolivian water and Mexican corn, and other
global issues to show the strategic thinking, shifting objectives,
and various degrees of success in the actions and nature of these
protest movements. Protesters and Their Targets seeks to develop a
set of tools for the further development of the field's future work
on this underexplored set of interactions.
