Let me share with you a critical point on revolutionary change and student movement. To bring about social-revolutionary outcomes, revolutionary situations are not enough, one factors is needed: revolutionary vanguard or hegemonic leadership. This is because people do not automatically mobilize for collective action, no matter how angry or discontent they may be. Student movement is a decisive factor in uniting people against the regime, but as such it cannot provide people with the leadership needed to enable action among them. So no leadership, no change. Good report, excellent blog.
