Mobilizing Democracy- Globalization and Citizen Protest
About this Episode
Investigates why some localities actively resist economic changes while others remain passive, focusing on the role of subnational mobilization, strategic alliances between diverse groups, and the utilization of existing state and community infrastructures. Through detailed case studies of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Panama, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and Honduras, the text highlights how factors like democratization, perceived economic threats, and historical experiences with collective action shape the intensity and success of these protests against privatization, free trade agreements, and austerity measures. Ultimately, the research demonstrates how grassroots efforts, often supported by opposition political parties and multisectoral coalitions, can successfully challenge and even reverse unwanted economic reforms.
