book

How can we get inside popular collective struggles and explain

how they work? Contentious Performances presents a

distinctive approach to analyzing such struggles, drawing

especially on incomparably rich evidence from Great Britain

between 1758 and 1834. The book accomplishes three main

things. First, it presents a logic and method for describing

contentious events, occasions on which people publicly make

consequential claims on each other. Second, it shows how that

logic yields superior explanations of the dynamics in such

events, both individually and in the aggregate. Third, it

illustrates its methods and arguments by means of detailed

analyses of contentious events in Great Britain from 1758 to

1834. em em
