The transnational movement’s performance repertoire has stayed remarkably stable

Evidence

Yet recall the lesson from this chapter’s opening vignette of Evian in 2003. For all the change in issues, slogans, symbols, and objects of claims, the standard combination of social-movement performances remains in place: marches; rallies; processions; demonstrations; occupations; picket lines; blockades; public meetings; delegations; statements to and in public media; petition drives; letter-writing; pamphleteering; lobbying; and creating specialized associations, coalitions, or fronts. In advance of the social movement’s institutionalization, the demonstration itself is spreading well beyond democratic regimes as a means of challenging corrupt and authoritarian rulers. — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 1266

Categorization

• XREF: Connects to the reader’s hypothesis test: Tilly claims regime change should change repertoires, but transnationalization (itself a regime-like structural change) has NOT changed the repertoire — a tension in his own framework worth probing. — connects to: Increasingly transnational movements have surprisingly left the basic repertoire unchanged — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 1265
• QUESTION: If regime change predicts repertoire change, why does global structural change fail to produce new repertoires? This is exactly the oddity the reader should chase.
• corroborated: 2 independent passages support this claim — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 1266
