Summary

Chapter 10 delves into the process of tactical radicalization observed in the 2019 movement. By adopting a relational approach, we analyze radicalization as a result of dynamic interactions across multiple arenas. We explore how discursive negotiations among protesters served as both the driving force and the limit to radicalization. It induced moderate protesters to extend tacit support to their more militant counterparts while acting as a restraint mechanism to curtail excessive measures.
