This book guides the reader through the many complications and
contradictions that characterize popular contestation today,
focusing on its socio-political, cultural, and aesthetic
dimensions. The volume recognizes that the same media and creative
strategies can be used to pursue very different causes, as the
anti-gay marriage Manif Pour Tous movement in France makes clear.
The contributors are scholars from the humanities and social
sciences, who analyze protests in particular regions, including
Egypt, Iran, Australia, France, Spain, Greece, and Hong Kong, and
transnational protests such as the NSA-leaks and the mobilization
of migrants and refugees. Not only the specificity of these protest
movements is examined, but also their tendency to connect and
influence each other, as well as the central, often ambiguous role
global digital platforms play in this.
