<\/center><\/p>\nA study, described in CPNN<\/a>, finds that nonviolent resistance, including mass protest marches, are more effective than violent resistance in both the short term and the long term. The analysis, stemming from a research project on Nonviolent Resistance and Democratic Consolidation, is based on 101 democratic transitions that occurred within the time period of 1945 to 2006. Using data from the Varieties of Democracy Database the researchers analyze improvements for civil society organizations (CSOs, i.e. interest groups, labor unions, religious organizations, social movements, and classic NGOs) after democratic transitions. They compare cases where democratization was induced by an NVR campaign (like Poland and Benin) with transition cases that did not feature an NVR campaign (i.e. violent or elite-led transitions). The four aspects of CSOs that were evaluated include: (1) independence from government, (2) freedom from repression, (3) consultation of CSOs for policymaking, and (4) participation in CSOs.<\/p>\n This question applies to the following recent articles in CPNN:<\/p>\n 2 October: 3rd World March for Peace and Nonviolence officially launched in the Spanish Congress of Deputies<\/a><\/p>\n Honduras: A massive march cries out for peace in Olancho<\/a><\/p>\n Indian farmers call off lengthy protest after govt assurances<\/a><\/p>\n Thousands demonstrate in France to stop violence against women<\/a><\/p>\n VIEW Reactions to India\u2019s decision to repeal farm laws<\/a><\/p>\n Successful start of the Latin American March for Nonviolence, Multiethnic and Pluricultural<\/a><\/p>\n USA: Women Rally for Abortion Justice Amid \u2018Unprecedented Attack\u2019 on Reproductive Rights<\/a><\/p>\n Belarus: Women at the forefront of human rights struggle<\/a><\/p>\n Irate farmers storm Delhi on tractors as tear gas deployed and internet cut off in scramble to defend Indian capital<\/a><\/p>\n France: Thousands protest against bill to curb filming of police<\/a><\/p>\n \u2018Stop Lukashenko\u2019: Hundreds of Thousands Protest Against Belarusian Leader for Eighth Straight Day<\/a><\/p>\n Tens of thousands march in southern India to protest citizenship law<\/a><\/p>\n A Worldwide Revolution Is Underway<\/a><\/p>\n Kazakhstan: Protests of presidential vote bring 500 arrests<\/a><\/p>\n Czech Republic: Prague crowds demand PM Andrej Babis step down<\/a><\/p>\n Sudan: top UN official demands cessation of violence and rape against civilians by security forces<\/a><\/p>\n Hong Kong protesters march demanding leader resign<\/a><\/p>\n Brazil: general strike highlights Bolsonaro\u2019s weakness<\/a><\/p>\n Celebrating arrests, but still pushing for change, protesters rally in Algeria<\/a><\/p>\n Israeli woman hold mass rallies to protest rising violence against women<\/a><\/p>\n France: More people marched in the demonstration #NousToutes than in the demonstration of the \u201cYellow Jackets\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n How Nonviolent Resistance Helps to Consolidate Gains for Civil Society after Democratization<\/a><\/p>\n Philippine Catholics march against Duterte\u2019s deadly war on drugs<\/a><\/p>\n Live long and protest: the power of mass action is alive in Romania<\/a><\/p>\n USA: Women\u2019s marches fight back against inauguration of Trump<\/a><\/p>\n Nonviolence Highlights in 2016<\/a><\/p>\n 40,000 Create Human Chains to Protest Violence in Honduras<\/a><\/p>\n March of Hope gathers 20,000 in historic Jerusalem rally<\/a><\/p>\n Colombia: Youth for Peace: Mass marches in 16 cities across the country<\/a><\/p>\n Papua New Guinea: Thousands march to \u2018make a stand for peace\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 Links for the following articles published prior to 2015 do not work because they were made by a version of PERL programming that is no longer supported.
