Prefigurative Democracy Protest, Social Movements and the Political Institution of Society
Free Download Mathijs van de Sande, "Prefigurative Democracy: Protest, Social Movements and the Political Institution of Society "
English | ISBN: 1474451853 | 2022 | 224 pages | PDF | 562 KB
In the wake of protest movements such as Occupy Wall Street and the Spanish 15-M movement, the past decade has seen an increased interest in prefigurative politics: the attempt of activists to already realise or embody their ideal of a future society within their own movements and practices. Engaging with the concept and its history, this book establishes a radical-democratic theory of prefiguration. Van de Sande builds on the work of political theorists as diverse as Hannah Arendt, Ernesto Laclau, Claude Lefort, Rosa Luxemburg, and Judith Butler to reveal the radical and representative role of protest and social movements today. He gives various accounts of how prefigurative practices and movements may continue to have political relevance long after they have ended.

Challenging the Mandate of Heaven Social Protest and State Power in China
Free Download Elizabeth J. Perry, "Challenging the Mandate of Heaven: Social Protest and State Power in China"
English | 2002 | pages: 377 | ISBN: 0765604450, 0765604442 | PDF | 16,2 mb
Social science theories of contentious politics have been based almost exclusively on evidence drawn from the European and American experience, and classic texts in the field make no mention of either the Chinese Communist revolution or the Cultural Revolution - surely two of the most momentous social movements of the twentieth century. Moreover, China's record of popular upheaval stretches back well beyond this century, indeed all the way back to the third century B.C. This book, by bringing together studies of protest that span the imperial, Republican, and Communist eras, introduces Chinese patterns and provides a forum to consider ways in which contentious politics in China might serve to reinforce, refine or reshape theories derived from Western cases.

English | ISBN: 147250920X | 2014 | 392 pages | PDF | 18 MB
The Nazi occupation of Europe of World War Two is acknowledged as a defining juncture and an important identity-building experience throughout contemporary Europe. Resistance is what 'saves' European societies from an otherwise chequered record of collaboration on the part of their economic, political, cultural and religious elites. Opposition took pride of place as a legitimizing device in the post-war order and has since become an indelible part of the collective consciousness.

The Mother's Day Protest and Other Fictocritical Essays
Free Download Stephen Muecke professor of creative writing Flinders University, "The Mother's Day Protest and Other Fictocritical Essays "
English | ISBN: 1783488158 | 2016 | 176 pages | PDF | 1306 KB
As a genre that confounds the distinction between fiction and non-fiction, fictocriticism continues to gain currency. It solves a problem for researchers and writers who do not wish to be held to that somewhat artificial division, and who consider their research methods necessarily to include the stylistic experiments that show their research and thought processes. Research, knowledge of the world, that continues to be 'written up', 'after the fact' in the usual academic genres, has a tendency to re-inscribe the status quo. The world stays the way it is; change, surprise and experiment elude the writer.

Student Protest The Sixties and After
Free Download Gerard J.De Groot, "Student Protest: The Sixties and After"
English | ISBN: 1138165948 | 2017 | 308 pages | EPUB | 456 KB
This topical new study takes a new look at the causes, course and consequences of student activism across the world since its heyday in the 1960s. It starts with analyses of some of the most familiar - and romanticised - Sixties protests themselves, in the US, France, Germany, Mexico and Great Britain. It then goes on to examine more recent, and hazardous, examples of student activism, particularly in China, Korea and Iran. Throughout, the tone is hard-headed and analytical, rather than celebratory, exploring the similarities and differences across these protests and asking what they achieved.
