Introduction: emotions, beliefs, and political protest -- The Soviet legacy and Georgian political culture -- Preheating society -- The last straw -- Framing and cognitive liberation |
| Summary |
While other studies explain the Rose Revolution in terms of the contribution of the "power players," Popular Mobilization and Empowerment in Georgia's Rose Revolution, by Kelli Hash-Gonzalez, adds to our understanding by examining the revolution from the perspective of ordinary citizens. This in-depth study shows how the movement frames targeted people's emotions, as well as their beliefs and values to more effectively mobilize a critical mass. This achievement was surprising, given the hopelessness, cynicism, and alienation in the region's political culture |
