ALT Join us to for the best paper award talk from the ECPR Standing Group on Political Violence’s Section at the ECPR 2024 General Conference. Who? Jannis Julien Grim Titile: Inspiring Solidarity, Inhibiting Outrage: Bank Heist as Radical Direct Action in Post-Revolutionary Lebanon Abstract: This contribution explores the motivations, tactics, demographics, and public perceptions of the series of bank holdups in post-revolutionary Lebanon. It highlights the ambivalence of the raids: They have become a powerful signifier for the fight against a corrupt regime, fostering solidarity in a context of fading revolutionary momentum. At the same time, their impact on broader mobilization is limited by their structural characteristics, mixed activist support, and their symbolic inhibition of public outrage and collective indignation. When: Wednesday 2 October 3pm [CET]
