The Tactics of Resistance

Tactics of resistance refer to the strategic methods individuals or groups use to oppose, challenge, or undermine authority, oppression, or control. These tactics can be subtle or overt, such as protests, protests, adapting behavior, or creating alternative systems. They are designed to maintain dignity, push for change, or preserve cultural identity in the face of external pressures. Understanding these tactics helps reveal how marginalized groups navigate power dynamics creatively and resiliently, often balancing risk and safety while seeking justice or autonomy.
