  • When Do Peaceful Protesters Support Political Violence in the United States?
    When do peaceful protesters support political violence in the United States? Michael T. Heaney University of Glasgow [email protected] Paper presented at the 116th Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association, held in San Francisco, California, and virtually, September 10‐13, 2020. Abstract: Political violence has become an increasingly salient element surrounding peaceful protests in the United States in recent years. This study examines the attitudes of peaceful protesters towards various conceptions of political violence. Drawing on surveys of participants at major protest events in Washington, DC in 2017 and 2018, it shows that protesters are more inclined to endorse the use of violence for political purposes when they are less satisfied with the way that democracy works in the United States. They are also more likely to support violence when they are identified with the left side the ideological spectrum than when they are identified with the right side of the spectrum. These views are reversed when protesters themselves are the target of violence. In this instance, the interaction of democratic satisfaction and ideology helps to explain attitudinal variations. Keywords: Political violence, protest, social movements, satisfaction with democracy, ideology, United States Acknowledgments: This study was supported by funding from the National Institute for Civil Discourse and, at the University of Michigan, the Institute for Research on Women and Gender, the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program, the National Center for Institutional Diversity, and the Organizational Studies Program. For helpful suggestions, thanks are owed to Chris Carman, Vince Hutchings, and seminar participants from the Glasgow Quantitative Methods Group. This research would not have been possible without the involvement of the many research assistants, surveyors, and survey respondents that are too numerous to be named individually.

  • Clive Vignola Ruder Master T
    Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to research Jimmy Fallon’s audience’s relationship with democracy through the jokes he makes during a political crisis. Looking at previous research such as Christie Davies Jokes and Targets, suggests that more jokes being made about politics illustrate dissatisfaction with the political system. Also, that the jokes themselves can lead to an understanding of how people relate to their political system. This thesis will go through different available theories, such as superiority, incongruity and release, on why people laugh. Not only that, the thesis will also go through semantic script theory of humor in order to be able to constitute what is and is not a joke. This same theory will also give the tools necessary to go into more depth with each individual joke. To assess what those jokes actually mean, Framing Theory as specified by George Lakoff. Through that, I will be able to better assess the meaning of the jokes being made and what they mean, which will be used to answer the problem formulation. This entire process will show that the jokes do not show an overtly negative view on democratic institutions on a whole. That said, there are jokes that criticize some aspects of democracy that perhaps need improvement. Also, it also suggests that Trump has become or is becoming an example of what a president should not be. 1 Contents Introduction .................................................................................................................................................. 5 What’s

Addendum B: SDSD Awards to African American Faculty, Staff, and Alumni 139 1 The Early Years, 1907-1929 Probably three factors best account for the slower pace of black attainment in higher education in San Diego County in the early 1900s: a more conservative political and social climate in sharp contrast to other parts of California, particularly Los Angeles and San Francisco; a considerably smaller population of African Americans here meant that the critical mass necessary to stir social activism on their behalf would be delayed for decades to come; and there was no nearby alternative to San Diego State, founded in 1897, for those seeking to become school teachers or wanting to obtain a bachelor‟s degree. There was the option of traversing 1,200 to 2,200 miles to attend a predominantly black college, but that could be a rather expensive and emotionally challenging proposition. A brave, privileged few were willing to risk the ostracism and ridicule of fellow students and the disdain of professors in the hope that the end result—a credential or a degree in hand---would eventually prove to have been well worth the effort.
