About the Book

Moments of mass mobilization astound us. As a sea of protesters fills the streets, observers scramble to understand this extraordinary political act by 'ordinary' citizens. This study presents a paired comparison of two 'moments' of mass mobilization, in Ukraine and Argentina. The two cases are compared and analyzed on a cross-temporal and an inter-regional basis, thereby offering two critical cases in response to assumptions that the processes and patterns of mobilization, and democratization politics more broadly, are region specific. This study challenges political science's focus on elites and structural factors in the study of political participation during democratization.

Review :
"A timely and creative analysis that sheds light on both the dynamics of mass mobilization and the broader political environment of Ukraine and Argentina." - Nancy Bermeo, Professor of Comparative Politics, Nuffield College, University of Oxford, UK 'Onuch's comparison of revolutionary moments in Argentina in 2001 and Ukraine in 2004 demonstrates that mobilizational upsurges are not one-off exercises, but rather culminate out of a series of inter-related episodes over a protracted period of time. She thus provides us with a deepened, historicized understanding of contemporary revolutionary processes.' - Mark R. Beissinger, Professor of Politics, Princeton University, USA
