Interest Groups and Policy
Repression refers to the systematic and often violent suppression of dissenting voices, movements, or groups by those in power. This tactic is often used by governments or authorities to maintain control and prevent challenges to their authority, leading to the decline of social movements and limiting their success. Repression can take many forms, including legal restrictions, physical violence, intimidation, and surveillance, which directly impact the ability of movements to mobilize and achieve their goals.
