Beskrivning
Based on extensive data and analysis of sixty contentious episodes in twelve European countries, this book proposes a novel approach that takes a middle ground between narrative approaches and conventional protest event analysis. Looking particularly at responses to austerity policies in the aftermath of the Great Recession (2008-2015), the authors develop a rigorous conceptual framework that focuses on the interactions between three types of participants in contentious politics: governments, challengers, and third parties. This approach allows political scientists to map not only the variety of actors and actor coalitions that drove the interactions in the different episodes, but also the interplay of repression/concessions/support and of mobilization/cooperation/mediation on the part of the actors involved in the contention. The methodology used will enable researchers to answer old (and new) research questions related to political conflict in a way that is simultaneously attentive to conceptual depth and statistical rigor.

Recensioner i media

'True methodological breakthroughs are rare in any field of study. But in Contentious Episodes in the Age of Austerity, Abel Bojar et al. have given us just that. All scholars concerned with the dynamics of contention will need to take account of the exciting new methodology - ‘contentious episode analysis’ - clearly and compellingly sketched in this groundbreaking book.' Doug McAdam, Ray Lyman Wilbur Professor of Sociology, Stanford University
