A Line In The Tar Sands: Struggles For Environmental Justice, Toban Black, Stephen D'Arcy, Tony Weis, Joshua Russell
Stephen D'Arcy
(Edited Collection.) The fight over the tar sands in North America is among the epic environmental and social justice battles of our time, and one of the first that has managed to marry quite explicitly concern for frontline communities and immediate local hazards with fear for the future of the entire planet. Tar sands “development” comes with an enormous environmental and human cost. But tar sands opponents—fighting a powerful international industry—are likened to terrorists; government environmental scientists are muzzled; and public hearings are concealed and rushed. Yet, despite the formidable political and economic power behind the tar sands, many opponents …

Languages Of The Unheard: Why Militant Protest Is Good For Democracy, Stephen D'Arcy
Languages Of The Unheard: Why Militant Protest Is Good For Democracy, Stephen D'Arcy
Stephen D'Arcy
A normative democratic theory of sound militancy is proposed, drawing on the ideas of Martin Luther King, but rejecting his non-violence standard in favour of a democratic standard. This normative standard is then applied to civil disobedience, disruptive direct action, sabotage, black blocs, rioting and armed struggle.
Everyone Is A Terrorist Now: Marginalizing Protest In The U.S, Ivan Greenberg
Everyone Is A Terrorist Now: Marginalizing Protest In The U.S, Ivan Greenberg
Ivan Greenberg
The American state believes terrorists are found everywhere there is disagreement and conflict in society. Even though American radicals rarely commit crimes, the FBI claims they pose a major challenge to peaceful social order. The terrorist label so broadly has been misapplied in recent years that it has lost most of its significance and meaning. The practice of political policing (or state "high policing") has become a core function of government in America.

He Pokeke Uenuku I Tu Ai: The Evolution Of Contemporary Maori Protest, Evan Poata-Smith
Evan S. Te Ahu Poata-Smith
Historically, the intensity and momenlUm of Maori political activism has never been consistent. Upturns in protest activity are followed by downturns in struggle and vice versa. 1lle 1970s were witness to a dramatic upsurge in Maori activism which had a profound effect on New Zcaland society. The political turbulence created in the wake of the 1975 land march on Parliament, Bastion Point, Raglan and the regular protests at Waitangi once again revealed the exploitative and oppressive foundations on which capitalism had been established in Aolearoa. The decline of working-class movements internationally and the fisc of the New Right coupled with …

Resurrecting Smelser: Collective Power, Generalized Belief, And Hegemonic Spaces, Mikaila Arthur
Mikaila Mariel Lemonik Arthur
When people mobilize for collective action, it is because they want something. These wants are known as grievances, and in order for them to emerge, collectivities must break free of hegemonic power to see their true interests. This paper takes a new look at Smelser’s The Logic of Collective Action and finds that by incorporating a robust understanding of power, Smelser’s framework can provide an understanding of grievance emergence.
