Policing the Protest Cycle of the 2010s
edited by Manuel Maroto, Ignacio González-Sánchez, and José A. Brandariz

This special issue analyzes the cycle of protests that has swept the globe following the Great Recession of 2008 and the Arab Spring revolts of the early 2010s. By exploring the differences between protests, and in particular between the different forms of repression with which they were met, this issue interrogates more broadly the relationship between the state and social movements and the role of penality as a tool of neoliberal governmentality.
