In many Mediterranean countries we observe newcomers to the
political arena: new forms of social networking, growing
opposition, and protest articulated by local communities or locally
active social movements. In this special issue we present fresh
research on localized practices of resistance by protest groups,
solidarity initiatives, and cultural projects, which have arisen in
the wake of the 2008 crisis. Based on ethnological fieldwork, the
volume offers insights into the media-based protest against the
commodification of the historic Marseille district Panier (Philip
Cartelli); urban gardening in Ljubljana as a practice opposing the
growing neoliberal market economy (Saa Poljak Istenic); and the
movement Genuino Clandestino, a solidarity network of small-scale
farmers in Italy (Alexander Koensler). Three case studies deal with
social movement in Greece: a solidarity network in Volos, where
citizens developed an alternative exchange and trading system
(Andreas Streinzer); grassroots mobilizations as resistant
practices in the inner urban neighbourhood of Exarchia in Athens
(Monia Cappuccini); and finally rural solidarity networks on the
Peloponnese peninsula (James Verinis). A comparative discussion of
Mediterranean protest movements (Jutta Lauth Bacas and Marion
Naser-Lather) identifies underlying common features in these
clearly different, yet relatable practices of protest: among
others, the major role of face-to-face interaction and mutual
trust.
