תאור כללי של הקורס:
Public communication as a means to mobilize support stands at the beginning of any kind of political change: Both in democracies and in authoritarian systems, new thoughts and political ideas are brought into the debate mostly by activists and dissidents. However, before new ideas can become politically influential, they need to be pushed into the public debate, and gain support throughout society and the political system. This course investigates what are the main challenges that political activists need to address, and how protest takes different forms and employs different strategies and tactics in different countries, cultures, and circumstances. We look at a wide variety of cases around the world, ranging from opposition movements in Socialist and authoritarian countries, over environmental and civil rights protests, to peace movements and protests on behalf of foreign nations. Based on an examination of the successes and failures of different groups, we will develop a deeper understanding for the communicative dynamics of protest communication. Building upon this understanding, we then focus on a selection of specific protest movements around the globe, mapping their specific goals and strategies, challenges and opportunities for achieving political change. In small project groups, we will analyze these movements' activities at communicating their causes toward the media, the public, and political authorities. Bringing together all insights from the different cases, we discuss how different strategies can be applied in different contexts, and review the implications for the viability of effective political protest.
