<span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">Much of what we know about the psychology of resistance is based on studies of collective action in relatively democratic conditions. More recently, however, psychologists have begun to investigate resistance in
more violent and repressive contexts, such as war, ethnic persecution, genocide, settler colonialism, and authoritarian regimes. This research has revealed the importance of considering a wide range of tactics in an effort to understand how people resist oppression
and violence. These tactics include everyday resistance in addition to organized collective action, covert as well as overt resistance, cultural resistance and prefigurative politics, and armed resistance.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:.5in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:.5in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify">
<span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:.5in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:.5in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify">
<span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">In her webinar presentation, Professor Vollhardt will illustrate these different forms of resistance using her own research on Jewish resistance during the Holocaust (using oral testimonies from survivors archived
in the Shoah Foundation Visual History archive) and research by her Ph.D. students on anti-colonial resistance in Puerto Rico and resistance among the Kurdish diaspora from Turkey. She will also discuss how the social and political context, as well as individual
and group-level factors, help to explain when people opt for particular resistance tactics to counter violence and oppression.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
