The author analyzes the causes and effects of the Belarusian Tent Camp protest movement in 2006. The movement is placed into the historical context of Belarusian social activism of 1990-2006. Its uniqueness is revealed by the application of Melucci's New Social Movement approach, which is complemented by Deleuzian concepts.
The book offers an analysis of the «Belarusian Maidan» protest movement that emerged in Minsk at the October Square as a result of the falsification of the presidential elections in March 2006. In particular, the author analyses the virtual dimension of the movement and its creativity by applying the New Social Movement approach elaborated by Melucci. He also presents an in-depth analysis through the use of Deleuzian concepts. The «Belarusian Maidan» is inscribed into the historical context of Belarusian social activism of 1990-2006, amid the increasing influence of new ICTs and the Internet.
