Public Disorder and Globalization: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Public Disorder and Globalization" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The current growth of incidents of public disorder around the world can be seen as symptomatic of major transformations in globalized society, government, and technology. But while disorder is routinely perceived as a disturbing phenomenon, it can also be a catalyst for positive transformation and regeneration. As social media is increasingly used as a platform for mobilization and organization, local disorder may spread outward through national borders, receiving international coverage and visibility as well as triggering a domino effect of global unrest.Combining qualitative and quantitative research, this ground-breaking text analyzes oppositional notions of order and disorder in global, national, and local contexts and considers the role of the police, the justice system, and other authorities in developing a range of responsive strategies. The author develops a new comprehensive framework for engaging in comparative and historical analysis of public disorder by drawing upon international case studies of public unrest such as 2005 in Paris and 2011 in London; the events in Ferguson and Baltimore that seeded Black Lives Matter; the Occupy movements in Zuccotti Park, Gezi Park, and Hong Kong; and the terror attacks in Paris and Brussels.This dynamic comparative study is informed by extensive international interviews and will be a required reading for students and scholars of criminology, sociology, political science, and urban studies.

But while disorder is routinely perceived as a disturbing phenomenon, it can also be a catalyst for positive transformation and regeneration.

The consequences of globalization and rapidly growing urbanization for shaping social movements are yet to be fully understood. In this elegant cross-cultural exploration of demonstrations, movements and risings, scholars will find a framework and a set of questions that will shape future research. This is a masterful and foundational work.

In this moment of global crisis and conflict between people and the police, this book reminds us of the roots of the clashes and the difficult struggles of disenfranchised groups for security and dignity in the face of resistance from the state. Public Disorder and Globalization realizes the remarkable intellectual achievement of showing the contested moral and political spaces and meanings at the heart of these conflicts. We see inside police institutions in three global cities to understand the meaning of order and contested space to the state, and how police notions of disorder threaten state actors and political elites. We see how the state, through its police apparatus, reshapes the struggle for recognition and belonging of those on the outside into social and political threat that invites harsh responses to control both people and spaces. This is a wonderful book that uses thick case studies where the state speaks in its own voice to reveal the justifying ideology for its use of harsh social control to reinforce the power of the elites and frustrate the search for dignity of those left behind.

As one commentator has recently observed, we seem to be entering a new age of public disorder (Clover, 2016). Certainly in the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth centuries, collective violence, broadly understood, was a regular and important vehicle for expressing common grievances. To a degree for much of the period, the riot was superseded by other forms of protest, not least various forms of industrial bargaining, and in particular the strike. Very roughly speaking, it appears that the last half-century has seen the more or less gradual return of public disorder across much of western Europe, and more recently in the United States.
For much of its history, social science displayed, at most, a rather modest interest in riot and collective violence. Early psychologists most notably Gustave Le Bon were intrigued by the seemingly startling effects that membership of a crowd had on the behaviour of individuals (Le Bon, 1895/1947), and the Chicago School of sociology in the 1930s also took a keen interest in the dynamics of collective behaviour. In contrast to the generally negative view of crowds that infused Le Bons work, the Chicago Schools Robert Park and Herbert Blumer took a more optimistic approach, seeing the potential for positive social development and social evolution in such disorderly activity (Blumer, 1936; 1978). In many respects, however, it was the new breed of social historians, much influenced by the Annales school, whose work on the riots of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries has had the most lasting influence on social scientific inquiry in recent times (Hobsbawm, 1959; Rud, 1964).
The revival of public disorder as a relatively regular occurrence in contemporary Western societies, and the revival of sustained social scientific interest in such events, has led to the development of a now considerable body of literature on urban violence, its causes, consequences, and control. Sophie Body-Gendrot has been one of the most important figures in this field with her studies of urban social control (Body-Gendrot, 2000), the policing of unrest (Body-Gendrot, 2004; 2010), and the impact of globalization on contemporary social order (Body-Gendrot, 2012).
