On a decade of protest around the world.
Journalist Vincent Bevins is back on the podcast to talk about his new book, If We Burn: The Mass Protest Decade and the Missing Revolution. We discuss the 2010s protest wave across countries as varied as Egypt, Turkey, Brazil, Ukraine, Hong Kong, Chile, Bahrain, Yemen, South Korea and Tunisia.
We ask:
- Why were protests in places that were so different all look so similar?
- Why was there such a focus on spontaneity, leaderlessness, peformativity, and horizontalism?
- What are some examples of the ways protests rejected representation?
- Was class or generation more important in driving these protests?
- Why did media becomes so important in pursuing political change?
- How can we avoid a repeat of the failures of the 2010s?
