Protest: a peaceful act of solidarity expressed through speech or a form of turbulent and deliberately disruptive resistance in which the bodily presence of the protesters makes a powerful demand for political change.
Post-Political: the idea that societies no longer govern by explicit political discourses and political instruments, but by subtle coercive constellations of representational regimes.
Speakers will address the history, mechanism, and goals of political protest, looking at it from the various perspectives of ethics, efficacy, communication, strategy, solidarity, public policy, parliamentary channels, and law.
