About this lecture
The content that will be discussed in this lecture: In the large majority of protests across the globe, relationships between police and
protesters remain peaceful. However, in some cases, hostility and violence emerge.
Though relatively infrequent, this form of violence tends to have large social and political ramifications. Feelings of insecurity among both protestors and police may increase, and politicians may use the violent event to raise fear in the population. In some cases, politicians exploit these events to further repressive and undemocratic political agendas.
In this lecture, we discuss how and why protests turn violent, considering the roles that police, protestors and politicians play in the process
