Conclusions; Bibliography; IndexResistance and Rebellion: Lessons from Eastern Europe explains how ordinary people become involved in resistance and rebellion against powerful regimes. The book shows how a sequence of casual forces - social norms, focal points, rational calculation - operate to drive individuals into roles of passive resistance and, at a second stage, into participation in community-based rebellion organization. By linking the operation of these mechanisms to observable social structures, the work generates predictions about which types of community and society are most likely to form and sustain resistance and rebellion. The empirical material centres around Lithuanian anti-Soviet resistance in both the 1940s and the 1987-91 period. Using the Lithuanian experience as a baseline, comparisons with several other Eastern European countries demonstrate the breadth and depth of the theory. The book contributes to both the general literature on political violence and protest, as well as the theoretical literature on collective action.Studies in rationality and social change.Resistance & RebellionGovernment, Resistance toLithuaniaHistory20th centuryGovernment, Resistance toEurope, EasternHistory20th centuryLithuaniaHistoryAutonomy and independence movementsEurope, EasternHistoryAutonomy and independence movementsGovernment, Resistance toHistoryGovernment, Resistance toHistory947.93Petersen Roger Dale1959-845970UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910450031403321Resistance and rebellion1899073UNINA
