  • Challenging Why Civil Resistance Works: In 2012, with the publication of Erica Chenoweth and Maria J. Stephan's Why Civil Resistance Works: The Strategic Logic of Nonviolent Conflict (Columbia University Press), there was a sea-change in the academic study of civil resistance. Using extensive data, Chenoweth and Stephan claimed to prove that nonviolent struggles were more effective than those that involved violence. That claim has gone largely unchallenged, until now. In Street Rebellion, Benjamin S. Case shows that Why Civil Resistance Works (Columbia University Press), and the subsequent work that relied on it, was based on flawed data and unfounded premises.
  • Exploding myth with academic analysis: Street Rebellion provides historical background, critique, empirical evidence, and political analysis of riots as part of the complex tapestry of socio-political struggle.
  • College Course Potential.
