PROTEST AND/OR MOVEMENT?
Keywords:
protest, social movement, strategy, populism, postdemocracyAbstract
There are three essential reasons for rethinking the logic, repertoires and scenarios „patterns for revolution” (Popović) created at the end of the last and beginning of this century: first, democratic deficits in the societies where „coloured” or „electoral” revolutions took place; second, the post-democratic demoralization of democracy and the growth of its populist pseudo-alternative even in the countries, which are considered the cradles of democracy; and third, the decline of the euphoria created around „the social media revolutions” after the „Arab Spring”, the initial effects of which have been lost in the geopolitical strategies. The key issue is (non)existence of a link between protests and social movements, that is, protest demands and their political modelling. If the protests do not come out with the new decentralized, network mediating structures and actors, the distrust towards politics and politicians will reduce the meanings of protests to „revolt and hope networks” (Castels) instead of introducing a change in perceptions. The protests will then be seen merely as interventions against the prominent abuse of power in favour of the ruling minority.
