Abstract:

Large-scale protest movements have recently transformed urban common spaces
into sites of resistance. The Arab Spring, the European Summer, the American
Fall in 2011, the revolts in India and South Africa and, more recently, in
Istanbul, in several cities in Brazil, and in Hong Kong, are part of a common
wave of protests which reclaims squares and urban places, monumentally
designed as political and economic centres, as places for discussion and
decision-making, for increasing participation and intervention in the
governance of the community. Through banners and signs, open assemblies, and
other communicative practices in the encampments and interconnecting physical
and virtual spaces, participants permanently reconfigure their lived spaces
discursively. The attempt to account for on-going social phenomena from the
moment they first happen, and with an international perspective, undoubtedly
represents a theoretical and methodological challenge. This book is a
successful and innovative attempt to address this challenge, capturing the
complex interplay between social, spatial, and communicative practices,
drawing on complementary and alternative methods. Originally published in
Journal of Language and Politics issue 13:4 (2014).

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
