Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Why do people choose to participate or not participate in politics? What explains unequal political participation and what are its consequences? Under what conditions are protests successful, ignored, or repressed? This seminar deals with conventional and unconventional political participation. The goal of this course is to understand patterns, motives, and outcomes of political participation. Considering both individual level and institutional explanations, we discuss the main theoretical expectations and apply them to empirical examples, including recent protest movements. Our discussions are based on related research articles and encompass the critical assessment of prevailing theories and quantitative analyses.
