The cooperation project with the FGZ/RISC Bielefeld (Priska Daphi) thus examines the structure, development and interaction of protests in comparative case studies. At the national level and, in more detail, at the local level, it will assess how many people have protested in Germany in the past 20 years and which were the issues these protests were about. The goal of the analysis is to describe and explain how and why protest dynamics at different locations are similar or different and how they have been shaped in different ways by national protest events. At the local level, a comparative analysis of how the protests affect different aspects of local social cohesion will also be carried out. The project thus contributes to understanding the contribution of protests to local social cohesion.
