“…Through identification with colleagues, guidelines about appropriate behavior in times of a looming strike exist among a group of workers. Defecting from the norms of one's group can have severe consequences for (future) relations with other group members (Klandermans, Rodriguez, and de Weerd: 2002). Thus, social identification with the group is considered one of the main predictors of participation (Klandermans 2004).…”

“…Additionally, being a regular implies by definition that people have more protest experience. Drury and Reicher (2009) suggest that protest participation in itself strengthens identification and induces collective empowerment (see also Klandermans, Sabucedo, Rodriguez, & de Weerd, 2002). The emergence of an inclusive self-categorisation as 'oppositional' leads to feelings of unity and expectations of support.…”

The recent economic crisis shaped a new wave of protest in Europe mobilising thousands of people. Austerity measures brought not only the 'usual suspects' onto the streets, they also awoke less frequent demonstrators. What brought all these people to the streets? Are their motivations the same for participation in all demonstrations? We compare participants in two types of mobilisations against austerity: those called particularistic (which are reactions to particular anti-austerity issues), and those universalistic (which address much broader issues such as questioning the political system). We also compare two typologies of participants taking into account their participation history: regular and occasional protesters. Employing a two-by-two design defined by type of demonstration (Particularistic vs. Universalistic) and the individual's participation history (Occasionals vs. Regulars), we found that the differences between demonstrations were smaller than those within types of protesters. Nevertheless, even in this period of hardship, motivation to participate in particularistic or universalistic protests differ depending on the perceptions of political system, ideological positioning and organisational embeddedness. Interaction analyses showed that different levels of identity, trust in institutions and satisfaction with democracy are crucial in driving people to participate in different types of demonstrations as occasionals or regulars.

“…As soon as the mobile devices and texting became common in the early 2000s, people realized the potential of these technologies to mobilize individuals to act in a coordinated manner, possibly disruptively and then quickly disperse (Cyveillance, December 2, 2013). Theories such as collective action (Coleman, 1973), collective identity formation (Klandermans et al, 2002) (Melucci, 1996), collective decision (Coleman, 1966), social capital (Coleman, 1966), and network modularity (Newman, 2006) have often been used to explain the group dynamics underlying collective behavior phenomena. These theories and concepts have been studied in the past by many researchers, but to the best of our knowledge never been used to study DCFMs.…”

“…the number of users involved in that flash mob, whether it succeeds or not, etc.). The more shared orientations that exist among the members of the group the stronger is the collective identity (Klandermans et al, 2002) because shared orientations among individuals induce a sense of belongingness to the group giving rise to the group's collective identity. Melucci (Melucci, 1996) argues that the collective identity formation is the intermediate process for the manifestation of contemporary forms of collective actions in the information age.…”

In a Flash Mob (FM) a group of people get together in the physical world perform an unpredicted act and disperse quickly. Cyber Flash Mob (CFM) is the cyber manifestation of flash mob coordinated primarily using social media. Deviant Cyber Flash Mob (or, DCFM) is a special case of CFM, which is categorized as the new face of transnational crime organizations (TCOs). The DCFM phenomenon can be considered as a form of a cyber-collective action that is defined as an action aiming to improve group's conditions (such as, status or power). In this paper, we conduct a conceptual analysis of the DCFMs and model the factors that lead to success or failure with groundings in collective action and collective identity formation theories. Mathematical constructs of hypergraph are leveraged to represent the complex relations observed in the DCFM social networks. The model's efficacy is demonstrated through a test scenario.
