I am researching protesting in different countries. I am focusing on how the government reacts to the protesting and if they give them many rights for it. I also like to look into how the citizens react to the responsibility of protesting and seeing others protesting. Both topics give insight on the actual rights of protesting for those select countries. I have been focusing more on the countries that seem to be very problematic in the rights of their citizens.
I have learned that most governments do not take kindly to their citizens protesting and will do anything to enforce that. They seem to not care what the protest is about and really just want to reenforce their power and they happen to enjoy using violence on the protestors. There are a few exceptions though because Russia doesn't seem to react towards the protesting happening and is all for as long as it is peaceful then they can go ahead and protest. The citizens mostly protest peacefully but some protestors get carried away and protest violently and mean. The citizens can also enforce rights onto other citizens by showing that they don't appreciate the protesting and that it should stop. A lot of the protestors do fall into the peer pressure when that happens.

I think you have a really interesting topic, and I can't wait to read more about it.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great topic, and one that is both historically relevant and relevant today. I'll be interested to see what the final product is.
