What are protest politics and social movement activism today? What
are their main features? To what extent can street citizens be seen
as a force driving social and political change? Through analyses of
original survey data on activists themselves, Marco Giugni and
Maria T. Grasso explain the character of contemporary protest
politics that we see today - the diverse motivations, social
characteristics, values and networks that draw activists to engage
politically to tackle the pressing social problems of our time. The
study analyzes left-wing protest culture as well as the
characteristics of protest politics, from the motivations of street
citizens to how they become engaged in demonstrations to the causes
they defend and the issues they promote, from their mobilizing
structures to their political attitudes and values, as well as
other key aspects such as their sense of identity within social
movements, their perceived effectiveness, and the role of emotions
for protest participation.
