Jasmina Gherairi analysiert alle an einem Protest beteiligten Akteure aus einer rhetoriktheoretischen Perspektive, liefert ein umfangreiches Klassifikationsmodell von Protesttechniken und illustriert an zahlreichen zeitgenössischen Beispielen, wann, wie und warum Protest (nicht) erfolgreich war. Wer protestiert, will überzeugen. Entgegen der landläufigen Meinung ist Protest keine planlose, spontane Unmutsbekundung, sondern eine Form erfolgsorientierter, strategischer Kommunikation. Es handelt sich dabei um die prinzipiell wiederholbare Anwendung von Protesttechniken, mit denen Protestierende ihr Anliegen ausdrücken und zu überzeugen versuchen.

Protest ist zu einem fixen Bestandteil unserer Gesellschaft geworden. Christoph J. Virgl analysiert Protest in seiner vielfältigen Bedeutung. Der Protest ist in seiner Einfachheit unnachahmbar und dennoch vermittelt uns jeder Protest mehr Weltwissen, als wir täglich in Politik und Massenmedien vermittelt bekommen. Kaum eine Formensprache schafft es in der modernen Gesellschaft besser, Konflikte und Widersprüche sichtbar zu machen. Es bleibt daher festzuhalten: Man muss nicht jeden Protest mittragen; aber kein Protest wäre unerträglich.

Protests are drivers of change but, at the same time, are also objects of change. The conditions under which protest emerges, the forms in which it is articulated and its potential impact may change in subtle ways or abruptly, with a big bang. The contributions in this edited volume focus on developments in post-unification Germany. How do protests impact on international politics and global economies? How do activists combine both online and offline protests in their campaigns? Does the profile of protesters change over time? Has protest become compartmentalised or are we witnessing the realignment of broader lines of conflict? The answers to these questions are unexpected and at times contradictory.With contribution byFelix Anderl, Regina Becker, Lisa Bleckmann, Sigrid Baringhorst, Priska Daphi, Nicole Deitelhoff; Annette Freyberg-Inan, Swen Hutter, Holger Janusch, Maren Kirchhoff, Melanie Kryst, Christian Lahusen, Nina Maria Merhaut, Volker Mittendorf, Oliver Nachtwey, Dieter Rink, Sieglinde Rosenberger, Dieter Rucht, Christian Scholl, Helen Schwenken, Simon Teune, Kathrin Voss, Lisa Villioth, Mundo Yang and Sabrina Zajak.

Proteste verändern die Welt, aber unterliegen auch selbst einem ständigen Wandel. Unter welchen Bedingungen sich Protest regt, in welcher Form er artikuliert wird und wie er wirken kann, verändert sich manchmal schlagartig, manchmal schleichend. Die Beiträge im Leviathan Sonderband "Protest in Bewegung?" nehmen insbesondere die Entwicklungen in der Bundesrepublik seit dem Ende der bipolaren Weltordnung in den Blick: Wie beeinflusst Protest internationale Politik und globale Wirtschaftsbeziehungen? Wie verbinden Kampagnen on- und offline-Protest? Gehen heute andere Menschen auf die Straße als zur Zeit der Wiedervereinigung? Wird Protest kleinteiliger oder zeichnen sich neue übergreifende Konfliktlinien ab? Die Antworten auf diese und andere Fragen fördern unerwartete und widersprüchliche Befunde zutage.Mit Beiträgen vonFelix Anderl, Regina Becker, Lisa Bleckmann, Sigrid Baringhorst, Priska Daphi, Nicole Deitelhoff; Annette Freyberg-Inan, Swen Hutter, Holger Janusch, Maren Kirchhoff, Melanie Kryst, Christian Lahusen, Nina Maria Merhaut, Volker Mittendorf, Oliver Nachtwey, Dieter Rink, Sieglinde Rosenberger, Dieter Rucht, Christian Scholl, Helen Schwenken, Simon Teune, Kathrin Voss, Lisa Villioth, Mundo Yang und Sabrina Zajak.

An authoritative, richly illustrated history of six centuries of global protest artThroughout history, artists and citizens have turned to protest art as a means of demonstrating social and political discontent. From the earliest broadsheets in the 1500s to engravings, photolithographs, prints, posters, murals, graffiti, and political cartoons, these endlessly inventive graphic forms have symbolized and spurred on power struggles, rebellions, spirited causes, and calls to arms. Spanning continents and centuries, Protest! presents a major new chronological look at protest graphics.Beginning in the Reformation, when printed visual matter was first produced in multiples, Liz McQuiston follows the iconic images that have accompanied movements and events around the world. She examines fine art and propaganda, including William Hogarth's Gin Lane, Thomas Nast's political caricatures, French and British comics, postcards from the women's suffrage movement, clothing of the 1960s counterculture, the anti-apartheid illustrated book How to Commit Suicide in South Africa, the "Silence=Death" emblem from the AIDS crisis, murals created during the Arab Spring, electronic graphics from Hong Kong's Umbrella Revolution, and the front cover of the magazine Charlie Hebdo. Providing a visual exploration both joyful and brutal, McQuiston discusses how graphics have been used to protest wars, call for the end to racial discrimination, demand freedom from tyranny, and satirize authority figures and regimes.From the French, Mexican, and Sandinista revolutions to the American civil rights movement, nuclear disarmament, and the Women's March of 2017, Protest! documents the integral role of the visual arts in passionate efforts for change

In 2011, political protests sprang up across the world. In the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, the United States unlikely people sparked or led massive protest campaigns from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street. These protests were made up of educated and precariously employed young people who challenged the legitimacy of their political leaders, exposed a failure of representation, and expressed their dissatisfaction with their place in the aftermath of financial and economic crisis. This book interrogates what impacts—if any—this global protest cycle had on politics and policy and shows the sometimes unintended ways it continues to influence contemporary political dynamics throughout the world. Proposing a new framework of analysis that calls attention to the content and claims of protests, their global connections, and the responsiveness of political institutions to protest demands, this is one of the few books that not only asks how protest movements are formed but also provides an in-depth examination of what protest movements can accomplish. With contributions examining the political consequences of protest, the roles of social media and the internet in protest organization, left- and right-wing movements in the United States, Chile's student movements, the Arab Uprisings, and much more this collection is essential reading for all those interested in the power of protest to shape our world.
