2023-01-05 02:24:44The field of social movement research is still fairly nascent, and more research is needed to be confident in our findings. Better yet, we need activist groups to experiment, and share findings from existing campaigns. If you're keen for this, please reach out!
2023-01-05 02:24:43As with all research, there are limitations with our approach. Namely: 1) It focuses most on what's measurable 2) Different goals require different strategies 3) We mostly focus on high-level strategy, not nuts and bolts tactics.
2023-01-05 02:24:43We think our findings aren't particularly groundbreaking, and support what other movement strategists have been saying for some time (e.g. Ayni Institute, @markjengler) However, it does add some weight to these statements, and hopefully offers some guidance to movement orgs

2023-01-05 02:24:415. A nonviolent radical flank can benefit the wider movement Radical tactics can increase support for moderate groups and encourage people to take other forms of action. Our April polling for @JustStop_Oil found more people willing to take climate action after their campaign pic.twitter.com/GEwYpxddEG
2023-01-05 02:24:414. Diversity can bring credibility Our interviews with policymakers, and experimental work by Wouters (2019), highlights that diversity can inrease support for your cause. It's probably not as important as nonviolence, but every little helps. pic.twitter.com/O5lh7l7cuW
2023-01-05 02:24:403. External factors have to be right Something we think isn't discussed enough, and potentially bad news for movement activists. We believe factors outside of a movement's control, such as pre-existing public opinion, elite supporters and luck will significantly impact outcomes.
2023-01-05 02:24:402. Numbers matter a lot No surprise to those familiar with @EricaChenoweth's 3.5% finding - the size of a protest movement is likely to have a significant impact. E.g. Wouters & Walgrave (2017) show elected officials are much more likely to take action based on larger protests. pic.twitter.com/drwt0CPmAX
2023-01-05 02:24:391. Nonviolence, rather than violence Whilst still debated, we think most evidence points towards nonviolence being a more effective strategy. One example is by @owasow, who finds that violent Civil Rights protests actually led to more votes for Republicans (not intended!) pic.twitter.com/OE7h4OP4Mi
2023-01-05 02:24:38What makes a protest movement successful? Social Change Lab just finished a 6-month report looking into this and we're excited to share our results. We conducted a literature review, bespoke public opinion polling, interviews with experts, and more. What we found 🧵 pic.twitter.com/baysJkxCnd
