Abstract

This paper presents a deeper first-hand understanding of the post-2010 collective action forms by proposing "repertoire" as an analytical tool. In doing so, it primarily aims to bring a critical perspective on normative and culture-focused approaches to the 21<superscript>st</superscript>-century activism that tend to take various aspects of mobilization processes for granted. By questioning how participants "remember" their movements from a critical insider point of view and relying on an ethnographic analysis of Istanbul's Gezi Park protests of 2013, this paper also sheds light on the ways in which the protest repertoires are adopted and performed in demonstrations spaces wherein they are first applied as well.
