- W4376650037 abstract "In this chapter, we compare the repertoires of mobilization for urban political riots and rural armed insurgency in Niger. Starting from the assumption that political violence can be a form of labour rather than being based on conviction and ideology, we analyse how both “violence machines” (political riots) and “war machines” (armed insurgency) exploit the socioeconomically precarious situation of youth (particularly males) through material incentives and the exchange of (mis-)information via mobile communication devices. We argue that political protest and armed conflict in Niger bridge rural and urban spaces. Although the city is undeniably the natural environment for political protest – because blocking key infrastructure threatens to undermine economic activity, thus providing a powerful tool for making demands – and although armed resistance needs rural hinterlands as safe havens to escape the reach of state repression, we observe the mobilization of rural residents for urban protests and the mobilization of city dwellers for a life as rebel fighters in the bush. Today, mobile communication systems facilitate the rapid dissemination of mobilization messages across rural and urban spaces, while dissatisfaction and a latent anger against the state and its established elites provides fertile ground for machines of violence and war to prosper." @default.
