This interdisciplinary collection examines how contemporary movements are reshaping political, social, and environmental landscapes through both online and offline means, including creative expression and grassroots mobilisation.

This book analyses non-violent activism, political resistance, mobilisation, responses to hate, and environmental activism. It brings together a wide range of academic perspectives, with contributions from scholars and practitioners across the social sciences and humanities, political science, the natural sciences, and environmental studies. By examining the synergy between online and offline actions, it highlights how these actions are interconnected with online platforms and virtual spaces, and in doing so it addresses the urgent need for compelling and legitimate civic resistance strategies in the modern world. It explores the intersection of digital platforms and real‑world action, providing fresh insights into how activism is increasingly transcending geographical, technological, and conceptual boundaries.

New Forms of Civic Resistance and Activism will appeal to scholars and students of criminology, social and political science, environmental studies, media and communication studies, cybercrime, and cyber security. It will also interest activists, policymakers, practitioners, and general readers who are curious about contemporary social movements.
