Abstract

De 1917 à 1922, la guerre civile a ravagé la Russie. En octobre 1917, les bolcheviks ? les Rouges ? prennent le pouvoir. Les Blancs, commandés par des généraux de l'ancienne armée, s'organisent pour les renverser. Les paysans se révoltent et créent des bandes de partisans, les « Verts », engagés eux aussi dans la lutte.L'Armée rouge, de près de cinq millions d'hommes, éliminera une à une les armées blanches jusqu'en novembre 1920. Les Blancs, persuadés que les bolcheviks ne résisteraient pas, soutenus par l'Entente mais ravagés par des divisions politiques et militaires, se demanderont longtemps comment ils ont pu perdre une guerre dont ils s'étaient vus tant de fois les vainqueurs.

Abstract

This book is for people who are angry with the ways things are and want to do something about it; for people who are frustrated with the system, or worried about the direction the country is going. Maybe they've been on a march, posted their opinions on social media, or shouted angrily at something they've seen on the news but don't feel like it's making any difference. It is for people who want to make a change but they're not sure how.

Abstract

The Euromaidan protests highlighted Ukraine as a state between East and West European pathways. It became obvious that Ukraine’s search for identity and future is deeply rooted in historical fragmentations of the country which indicate Ukraine’s long-standing and multiple ties beyond its borders. In this volume, distinguished scholars provide empirical analysis and theoretical reflections on Ukraine’s transnational embeddedness which surfaced with an unexpected intensity in the recent political conflict. The contributions focus on such phenomena as the role of international media and of diaspora communities in the Euromaidan’s aftermath, on the transnational roots of memories and the search for collective identity, and on transnational linkages of elites within Ukrainian political and economic regimes. The anthology demonstrates the theoretical and analytical value of the concept of transnationalism for studying the ambivalent processes of post-Soviet modernization. Biographische Informationen Timm Beichelt is Professor of European Studies at the European University Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. His work concentrates on European Union political developments, German politics, and the development of political regimes in Central and Eastern Europe. Susann Worschech is a Post-Doc Research Associate at the Chair of European Studies at the European University Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. Her work focuses on civil society, protest movements and democratization processes in Eastern Europe, social network analysis, and transnational interaction.

Abstract

From the Arab Spring to the Spanish Indignados, from Occupy Wall Street in New York to Nuit Debout in Paris, contemporary protest bears the mark of citizenism, a libertarian and participatory brand of populism which appeals to ordinary citizens outraged at the arrogance of political and financial elites in the wake of the Great Recession. This book draws on 140 interviews with activists and participants in occupations and demonstrations to explore the new politics nurtured by the 'movement of the squares' of 2011-16 and its reflection of an exceptional phase of crisis and social transformation. Gerbaudo demonstrates how, in waging a unifying struggle against a perceived Oligarchy, today's movements combine the neo-anarchist ethos of horizontality and leaderlessness inherited from the anti-globalisation movement, and a resurgent populist demand for full popular sovereignty and the reclamation of citizenship rights. He analyses the manifestation of this ideology through the signature tactics of these upheavals, including protest camps in public squares, popular assemblies and social media activism. And he charts its political ramifications from Podemos in Spain to Bernie Sanders in the US, revealing how the central square occupations have been foundational to current movements for radical democracy worldwide.
