我们认为，60年代的斗争受到了不成比例的关注，创造了一种风格化的社会运动形象，不仅在早期和非民主背景下，而且在当代美国，都有可能扭曲我们对民众争论的理解。这种风格化的观点往往将运动等同于(A)公共场合的破坏性抗议，(B)在政治问题上松散协调的国家斗争，(C)以城市和/或校园为基础的抗议活动，以及(D)处于不利地位的少数族裔的主张。基于对芝加哥大都市集体公民参与的趋势和模式的更大规模的研究，我们使用了1970至2000年间约1,000起抗议事件的新数据，以评估这四种程式化的观点并解决一些相关问题。这些数据不支持社会运动的普遍形象--自1980年以来，社会运动形式发生了显著转变，现在公众抗议基本上是和平的、例行公事的、郊区的、地方性的……
We argue that the disproportionate attention accorded the struggles of the sixties has created a stylized image of social movements that threatens to distort our understanding of popular contention, not only in earlier periods and in nondemocratic contexts, but also in the contemporary U.S. This stylized view tends to equate movements with (a) disruptive protest in public settings, (b) loosely coordinated national struggles over political issues, (c) urban and/or campus based protest activities, and (d) claim making by disadvantaged minorities. Drawing on a larger study of trends and patterns in collective civic engagement in metropolitan Chicago, we employ new data on some 1,000 protest events between 1970 to 2000 to assess these four stylized views and address a number of related questions. The data do not support the common imagery of social movements—since 1980 there has been a marked transformation of the movement form to the point where public protest is now largely peaceful, routine, suburban, loca...
