Navigating Civil Resistance
While civil resistance campaigns are often initiated by a small number of organizations that receive broader social support, many groups are active during periods of campaigning without belonging to the main organizing group. Navigating Civil Resistance focuses on the mobilization dynamics of numerous non-campaign organizations in times of civil resistance, developing a theoretical framework that offers an account of nonviolent and violent resistance campaigns as sustainable challenges to the current political system, and the manner in which different organizations’ characteristics affect their perception, activities, goals, and resources. Employing a mixed-methods, longitudinal approach b...

Climate Change and the Endurance of Democracy
This book explores the challenges climate change poses to the endurance of democracy, situating this theme within the context of the decline in global freedom documented since the early 21st century. It discusses how disaster events have historically affected human reasoning and agency and how the climate crisis is likely to influence democratic development in the future. Climate extreme events can provide opportunities for autocratic leaders to curtail rights and freedoms, but they can also create critical junctures where the social and political discourse within society is reshaped and where incumbent regimes are contested. The book illustrates how climate change may generate food insecuri...
