History shows us that peoples' movements are more likely to succeed when they have unity among supporters, widespread participation, strategic planning, and nonviolent discipline. Unsurprisingly, movement opponents use agent provocateurs-fake activists working undercover-to behave in counterproductive ways that undermine these four keys to success. Drawing from international examples, and an in-depth case study of the US Black Liberation Movement, this volume explores how agent provocateurs-and agent provocateur-like behavior-make movements smaller, weaker, and easier to defeat. It also offers some ideas for how activists can inoculate their movements against such harms and increase their chances of success.
