In the good ol' days, every social change group knew how to do a street
protest, or an occupation, or something even more confrontational. Today,
many social change groups avoid any kind of confrontation in favour of
consensus models. Is confrontation really irrelevant to today's social
change efforts? Are consensus models really effective?

This workshop will draw on participants' experiences with confrontation and
consensus processes to better understand the strengths and weaknesses of
each. Then, using a political opportunity structure model, you will learn
how to analyse your political context to better decide when, where, and how
to use a combination of confrontation and consensus strategies.
