Protests in a Small Island State during the Year of Covid-19: The Case of Malta, is a study by Dr Michael Briguglio, a Senior Lecturer at the Department of Sociology, University of Malta.
A peer-reviewed article is now available as an open-access publication, in the academic journal ‘Protest,’ published by Brill.
It advises that “this paper relies on protest event analysis (pea) to study protests held in Malta during 2020 and analyses specific features of those protests, namely issues, organisations, coalitions, venues, and types of protest.”
“The study verifies how Malta’s status as a small state impacts protest, especially in terms of networks of activism and in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic,” the article noted.
Dr Briguglio said that he is currently finalising a similar study for 2021 and collecting data for 2022 and 2023.
