Abstract

This paper tests for the characteristics affecting the revolutionary preferences of over 200,000 randomly sampled individuals from surveys taken over the 1970s to 1990s. The chances of supporting revolt are higher if young, lower in the income distribution or unemployed. There are strong differences across ideological lines. For people identifying with the religious right, falling from the top to bottom income quartile increases the probability of supporting revolt by 2 percentage points whereas falling unemployed has no effect. For those identifying with the non-religious left both events increase the probability of supporting revolt by at least 5 percentage points.
