Abstract

This study aims to understand how the structure of mobilization networks relates to the outcomes of collective action by using 17cases of neighborhood protests in Ankara between 2007-2011. Based on police records and on site interviews, the findings of thestudy suggest that successful outcomes depend on two mobilization structure related processes; the first one facilitates the efficientflow of information for coordination purposes, while the second increases the tendency of participants to use high-risk disruptivetactics due to the prevalence of strong ties amongst the protagonists. This paper also considers, to some extent, the antecedents ofthese structures, and shows that they originate from two sources that very much depend on each other: the spatial configuration ofthe neighborhood in question and pre-existing informal social ties.

Özet

Çalışma, 2007-2011 arası Ankara’nın çeşitli mahallelerinde gerçekleşen 17 eylemi inceleyerek mobilizasyon ağlarının yapısının yerel protesto olaylarının sonuçlarıyla nasıl ilişkili olduğunu anlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri polis kayıtları ve saha görüşmelerinden oluşmaktadır. Sonuç olarak olumlu sonuç ile ilişkili iki ayrı mekanizma belirlenmiştir. Birinci mekanizma verimli bilgi akışını sağlayarak katılımcıların koordinasyonunu kolaylaştırır. İkincisi ise katılımcıların arasındaki güçlü bağlar nedeniyle riskli taktiklerin kullanılma eğilimini artırır. Mobilizasyon ağlarının öncülleri olarak mekansal yapılar ve enformel sosyal ağlar göze çarpmaktadır
