This article analyzes a 2018 protest instigated by rural activists in northern Uganda, who chose to contest violent state-driven evictions by peacefully occupying a UN compound in the urban center of Gulu. With their contribution to this ASR forum on rural radicalism, Laing and Weschler argue that in militarized contexts such as Uganda, remote geographies present rural political actors pursuing radical goals with certain advantages but also unique challenges. The case they examine demonstrates the capacity of rural activists to draw on rural-urban ties and a tactic they have dubbed “third-party leverage” to imaginatively circumvent such constraints.
这篇文章分析了 2018 年由乌干达北部农村活动家发起的抗议活动，他们选择以和平方式占领位于古卢市中心的联合国大院，以此抗衡国家主导的暴力驱逐。Laing 和 Weschler 为本次关于农村激进主义的 ASR 论坛撰文，他们认为，在乌干达这样军事化的环境中，偏远的地理位置为追求激进目标的农村政治行动者提供了某些优势，但也带来了独特的挑战。他们研究的案例表明，农村活动家有能力利用城乡联系和他们称之为 "第三方杠杆 "的策略，以富有想象力的方式规避这些限制。
