Description:"Rioting is a serious and dramatic form of political protest. Potentially, it is the catalyst for organizing a radical movement aimed at the transformation of American institutions rather than inclusion into them. This possibility does not escape the notice of political and economic elites. In this sense, riot commissions may be understood as an effort to coopt liberal reformers and professionals, to affirm the strength and flexibility of established institutional arrangements - to reduce any existing imperfections and facilitate their smooth management - to divide 'radical' opposition and disparage socialist or 'liberation' movements, and to inhibit the possibility of sudden and major change." - Anthony M.
