People Power Data Project
People power movements have become a common strategy for trying to topple a dictator. But only a minority of campaigns succeed. What strategies and tactics should protesters pursue to maximize their chances?
The People Power Data Project seeks to answer these questions by collecting data on protester tactics in all people power movements since the French Revolution. The project is run by Professor Sharan Grewal and has been funded by American University and William & Mary. Meet the team, see what variables we are recording, and read our initial findings on the People Power blog.
