URBAN PROTEST - ARVE HANSEN KARTONIERT (TB)

Urban space is an important part of the political environment-a place where people congregate
to discuss  deliberate  and interact with each other. In times of great public discontent 
people often turn to urban spaces to make their opinions heard and to demand change  with
varying degrees of success. How are mass protests affected by the urban public space in which
they occur?This book provides a theoretical model to analyze city spaces  based on the use of
theories from political science  urban planning  and sociology. Hansen's approach consists of a
mapping of the causal mechanisms between spatial elements  the political environment  and their
combined effects on protests. This mapping is applied to three case studies-Kyiv  Minsk  and
Moscow.In addition to the spatial perspective model  Urban Protest provides new insights as to
how the interactions in space occur  and demonstrates how geography can create limitations and
opportunities in a large variety of ways.
