MOBILISE: National Representative Panel and Protest Surveys, 2019-2022

The MOBILISE project examines why some people respond to discontent by protesting, others by migrating while yet others stay immobile. It focuses on four countries that have seen outmigration and protest in recent year (Ukraine, Poland, Morocco and Argentina) and migrants from these countries who live in Germany, the United Kingdom and Spain. The main body of MOBILISE survey data are nationally representative face-to-face surveys in Ukraine, Poland, Morocco and Argentina. All of the surveys thoroughly ask for political views and beliefs as well as socio economic background, the reasons and motivations to (or not) migrate and the reason to (or not) protest. The surveys were run face to face CAPI and following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic the mode shifted to CATI. The MOBILISE national and migrant surveys (found in separate depository) are set-up as a two wave panel. The first wave of data collection for the migrant and national survey started in March 2019 and finished in March 2020. The second wave started between December 2020 and December 2021.

Where possible we also collected Online Protest Surveys employing the same questionnaires as the Nationally Representative Panel Surveys and Migrant Surveys. Online Protest Surveys were collected in Belarus in 2020 and Poland in 2020/2021.

This data deposit contains wave one and two of the nationally representative panel surveys in Argentina, Ukraine, and Poland as well as the Online Protest Surveys were collected in Belarus in 2020 and Poland in 2020/2021. (the Moroccan surveys and the migrant surveys are deposited separately please contact the MOBILISE Dutch and French PIs for these data).
