Political Opportunity Structures and Political Protest: Anti-Nuclear Movements in Four Democracies

Herbert P. Kitschelt

British Journal of Political Science, 1986, vol. 16, issue 1, 57-85

Abstract: Since the 1960s, successive protest movements have challenged public policies, established modes of political participation and socio-economic institutions in advanced industrial democracies. Social scientists have responded by conducting case studies of such movements. Comparative analyses, particularly cross-national comparisons of social movements, however, remain rare, although opportunities abound to observe movements with similar objectives or forms of mobilization in diverse settings.
