Protest in Late Modern Societies 1st Edition

Capture the dynamics of contemporary dissent with Protest in Late Modern Societies, 1st Edition by Monika Banaś. This compelling study brings clarity to the fast-changing world of protest—how movements form, adapt and influence politics in our interconnected age.

Grounded in rigorous research and vivid case examples, Banaś maps the structural forces that shape modern contention: from shifting labor markets and media environments to digital mobilization and transnational networks. Readers will find lucid explanations of protest repertoires, state-society interactions, identity politics, and the role of everyday activism in democratic life. The book balances theory and empirical insight, making complex sociological debates accessible without losing analytical depth.

Perfect for students, scholars, policymakers, and engaged citizens, this edition equips readers to recognize patterns across urban demonstrations, online campaigns, and grassroots organising. It also situates protest within European and global contexts, helping readers compare local struggles with broader transnational trends.

Why this book matters: it decodes contemporary protest phenomena, offers tools for critical analysis, and sparks informed discussion about democratic resilience and social change. Well-suited for courses in sociology, political science, and social movement studies, it’s also a go-to reference for journalists and practitioners seeking deeper perspective.
