Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complexities of civil unrest in American cities, specifically focusing on the dynamics of riots that have occurred in marginalised neighbourhoods. The author provides a historical backdrop, highlighting that while episodes of revolt and insurrection have punctuated the nation's past, the turbulence witnessed in recent decades has been particularly intense and widespread. The book systematically explores the social processes that lead to civil disorders, breaking them down into distinct phases: the premobilization phase, where societal cleavages and hostile beliefs emerge; the mobilization phase, marked by the formation of crowds and the spread of rumours; and the hostile outburst phase, characterized by acts of violence and defiance of authority. The author examines the roles of various groups within the community context, including militants, potential rioters, law enforcement, and the general population. This book also analyses the factors influencing the intensity and magnitude of these events, such as the effectiveness of law enforcement, the influence of community leaders, and the underlying social, economic, and political conditions. By dissecting the intricate interplay between these elements, this book offers valuable insights into understanding and addressing the root causes of civil unrest, ultimately aiming to foster a more just and equitable society.
