Radical tactics within social movements: helpful or harmful? | James Ozden | EAGxNordics 2023
A director from Social Change Lab discusses the effectiveness of radical tactics within social movements, exploring grassroots activism, disruptive protests, and the correlation between mobilizations and public opinion. The debate of radical vs moderate protests is examined, along with the positives and negatives of the radical flank effect. The concept of the backfire effect and the power of radical tactics are explored, using examples such as the Occupy movement and Gandhi's prison time.
