An all-encompassing term for political activism that stokes or is stoked by civil unrest. It often involves violence or destruction. It encompasses revolutionary actions such as protest, riots, rebellion, and escalations up to civil war. This is counter to the democratic process of election, in which the people of a nation peacefully decide the direction of its rule.
The Haitian Revolution had a number of spicy elections on the road to independence.
