Yael Zeira

Opis

In advancing a new explanation of participation in anti-regime protest in the Palestinian Territories, Zeira brings innovative theory and data to bear on long-standing puzzles about individual participation in collective action. This book will appeal to a wide, interdisciplinary audience in political science, sociology and Middle East studies.

Recenzje

'… the book provides a compelling account of a key period of Palestinian resistance and a strong case for looking beyond the role of internal and autonomous organizations and networks to consider state institutions as potential incubators and generators of popular mobilization for mass unarmed resistance, especially in authoritarian environments.' Roger Baumann, Mobilization
