People Power: Activism in Hard Times in Central and Eastern Europe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

People Power elevates the voices of civic activists from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and analyzes a wealth of different information to demonstrate that despite many challenges that have frustrated independent voices and social groups, activism in CEE is vibrant, diverse, and consequential.  The book gives special attention to the recent \u201chard times\u201d \u2013 the shrinking of public space for civil society voices, democratic backsliding, economic inequality, polarization, and Russia\u2019s war in Ukraine \u2013 facing citizens of these countries. My presentation will focus on the book\u2019s three core arguments and our major take home points, highlighting two themes addressed in the book \u2013digital activism and intergenerational dynamics..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
