Regime-analysis must specify how institutionalized rights interact with rightful and defiant contention

Evidence

Noninstitutionalized public contention enters Dahl’s story incognito. It appears as demands (of unspecified form) that regimes remove causes of extreme inequality, as disputes in which one segment of the population appears to threaten the survival of another, as the formation of revolutionary oppositions, and as foreign conquest. His scheme therefore challenges us to specify the interaction between regimes and the rights embedded within them, on one side, and contentious politics that sometimes adopt rightful means and sometimes defy them, on the other. — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 104

Categorization

• XREF: Directly relevant to reader’s test: Tilly here names the interaction between ‘rights embedded within regimes’ and contention that ‘sometimes adopts rightful means and sometimes defies them’ — the exact asymmetry the reader wants to probe. — connects to: Social-movement activity depends on regime-backed rights to endure retaliation — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 1178; Democratic regimes channel contentious claims into prescribed institutional forms. — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 447; Regime surveys center on discontinuous public collective claim-making between distinct political actors — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 306 (+1 more)
• QUESTION: Tilly poses the interaction as a challenge without resolving it — worth chasing whether any later chapter operationalizes rightful-vs-defiant contention by regime type.
• corroborated: 2 independent passages support this claim — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 104
