1. Introduction - conventional politics and protest -- 2. The state's response to protest, subversion and terrorism -- 3. Demonstrations -- 4. Direct Action -- 5. Workplace protest -- 6. Riots -- 7. Terrorism in the UK within a global context -- 8. The UK state, protest and terrorism -- 9. Policing global protest and terrorism.

This book examines the nature of protest and the way in which the police and state respond to the activities associated with this term. Protest is explored within the context of the perceived decline in public engagement with recent general election contests. It is often thought that protest is regarded as an alternative to, or as a replacement for, formal political engagement with electoral politics, and this book provides a thoughtful assessment of the place of protest in the contemporary conduct of political affairs. Analysing key forms of protest such as: demonstrations, direct action, protest conducted within the workplace, riots and terrorism, this study also illustrates each of these activities with a wide range of examples of events that have taken place within the UK since 1945. It will be of keen interest to students of criminology, criminal justice studies, police studies and politics.
