Recruiting strangers and friends: moral shocks and social networks in animal rights and anti-nuclear protests

ISSN 0037-7791

Abstract Through surveys of animal rights and anti-nuclear protestors, distinguishes two mechanisms of recruitment to protest, one based primarily on appeals to new recruits, the other on activating existing networks. Fewer animal rights protestors rated family, friends and previous activism in other causes as reasons for their animal rights participation; they were often recruited directly by moral shocks in the form of visual and verbal rhetoric.
