Men in Black: Dynamics, Violence, and Lone Wolf Potential

José Zúquete

Terrorism and Political Violence, 2014, vol. 26, issue 1, 95-109

Abstract: Since the turn of the millennium in particular, protest movements have often been characterized by Black Bloc tactics of confrontation and street fighting between anarchist militants and police forces. This article analyses the Black Bloc's philosophy, dynamics, organization, praxis, and goals. After discussing the relationship between the Black Bloc and violence, the article analyses dynamics within militant anarchism that open the way for the formation of autonomous terrorist cells, as well as the potential for lone wolf terrorism in the movement.
