Features of attraction of resources by protesters

Protest activity can be effectively implemented in those cases when it has necessary resources at its core. The article examines the tools for resource mobilization in protest campaigns on the example of four protest campaigns. An analysis of protest actions helps identifying such tools for attracting resources by protest associations as crowdsourcing, volunteer resources, association with other movements and associations, involvement of political parties, mass protest actions and cultural events. The dominant strategies of the movements are highlighted in the process of attracting resources. The authors note that the key tool in the organization of protest activity is the building of network interaction within the protest movement, as well as the effective communication and interaction with external actors.
