Produktbeschreibung
This book deals with contextualized radicalization of tactics within the case-study of one protest initiative in Ukrainian capital city. Referring to this example, radicalization of tactics, particular context after the Orange Revolution, and the phenomenon of transactional activism are researched in relation both to one another and to different aspects of protest activities. This book addresses a tendency toward a more contextualized approach within the Western social movement studies, by problematizing the influence of the Orange Revolution on social activism in Kyiv. While dealing with the radicalization of tactics in the particular urban social movement, this work explores the promising yet underresearched phenomenon of transactional activism. The case-study demonstrates both opportunities and potential limitations of transactional activism in its relation to the question of context and to other dynamics of protest activities, including that of radicalization. It should be especially useful for those who are interested in contemporary problems of the social movement studies and more general issues of practical social research.
