Abstract

Jean-Paul Nizigiyimana explores the various overlapping motivations of protesters who have claimed the streets of Burundi’s capital over the last 30 years. Providing demonstrators with both outlets for voiced frustrations and even financial opportunism, Nizigiyimana nuances the functions of these protests, including but not only those organised around the controversial 2015 elections.
