BOHIGUES, Asbel e SENDRA, Mariana. Resource mobilization or disaffected radicalism? Support for protest in Argentina. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2022, vol.30, n.60, 00001. Epub 31-Maio-2024. ISSN 0188-7653. https://doi.org/10.18504/pl3060-001-2022.
This article aims to analyze the reasons behind support for protest, differentiating between two types: legal demonstrations, and road blockades. To do so, we contrast two theories: resource mobilization, and disaffected radicalism, taking the case of Argentina as a reference. We use data from the Americas Barometer for the period 2008-2017. Controlling for temporality through a fixed-effects ordered logistic model, the results show that the resource mobilization theory has greater empirical support, even with the exception of support for democracy in blockades. Moreover, the analysis shows that the main determinants, support for democracy and interest in politics, are maintained over time, although the rejection of legal demonstrations by non-democrats and those disinterested in politics is reinforced.
