Players and Arenas
The Interactive Dynamics of Protest
Edited by James M. Jasper (CUNY Graduate Center) and Jan Willem Duyvendak (University of Amsterdam)
 
This compelling study bridges the gap between structural and cultural theories by placing protesters and other players with whom they interact in the context of structured arenas. The main constraints on what protesters can accomplish are not determined directly by social and political structures so much as they are imposed by other players with different goals and interests.
