Description: Democratic governments often permit social protests and claim them as evidence of a dynamic and healthy public sphere. But from Indian farmers to Canadian truckers, twenty-first century protests are growing in number, intensity, scale, and volatility. This course examines the changing relationships between social mobilization, protest, and democracy. This course counts towards the electives requirement for the PLST minor.
