Session Submission Type: Virtual Full Paper Panel

Session Description

These papers investigate questions of resistance, riot, and rebellion in the context of democratic societies. How should we understand popular uprisings? Under what conditions are protests productive outlets for popular concerns? With examples from 19th-century Baltimore to the January 6 Capitol insurrection, these papers explore the possibilities--and limits--of popular resistance.
