As a result, a local act of resistance can acquire almost immediately a much larger, cross-territorial dimension. This book draws upon a broad and innovative range of sources to scrutinise this central but often neglected aspect of global politics. Through case studies that span from Renaissance perceptions of human agency to the collapse of the Berlin Wall, the author examines how the theory and practice of popular dissent has emerged and evolved during the modern period. Dissent, he argues, is more than just transnational. It has become an important 'transversal' phenomenon: an array of diverse political practices which not only cross national boundaries, but also challenge the spatial logic through which these boundaries frame international relations. 410 0$aCambridge studies in international relations ;$v70. 517 3 $aPopular Dissent, Human Agency & Global Politics 606 $aGovernment, Resistance to 606 $aCivil disobedience 606 $aDemonstrations 606 $aDissenters 606 $aInternational relations 615 0$aGovernment, Resistance to. 615 0$aCivil disobedience. 615 0$aDemonstrations. 615 0$aDissenters. 615 0$aInternational relations. 676 $a303.6/1 700 $aBleiker$b Roland$0545645 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454681003321 996 $aPopular dissent, human agency and global politics$9887907 997 $aUNINA
