520 _aThis article distinguishes between protest and terrorism during this volatile period. 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.
