While most actions are clearly protest and civil disobedience, some acts may fit contemporary definitions of terrorism by virtue of threat-based communication processes and risk to life. This was also driven, in part, by the exploitation of a decentralised organisational structure which inhibited counteraction. This early adoption of a free-floating cell structure sets an early precedent for leaderless resistance tactics within the far left wing. It therefore challenges two assumptions: first, that this form of organisation is new, and second, that this organisation is more typical of contemporary jihadist or right wing terrorists UR - https://doi.org/10.1080/17539153.2020.1810992 ER -
