It is not only a paradox but something of an intellectual scandal
that, in an era so shaken by radical actions and ideologies, social
science has had nothing theoretically new to say about radicalism
since the middle of the last century. Breaching the Civil Order
fills this void. It argues that, rather than seeing radicalism in
substantive terms - as violent or militant, communist or fascist -
radicalism should be seen more broadly as any organized effort to
breach the civil order. The theory is brilliantly made flesh in a
series of case studies by leading European and American social
scientists, from the destruction of property in the London race
riots to the public militancy of Black Lives Matter in the US, the
performative violence of the Irish IRA and the Mexican Zapatistas
to the democratic upheavals of the Arab Spring, and from Islamic
terrorism in France to Germany's right-wing populist Pegida.
