Provos 

For interpretations of media and protest movements see Cohen (1972) and Gitlin (1980). For studies on protest and rituality see Hall and Jefferson (1993), Hebdige (1979).

For the religious dimension of protest movements see the outstanding work by Koenot (1997). Martin (1981) is an excellent sociological study to cultural change in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

The perception of Provo abroad has been studied by Vassart and Racine (1968) and the activists Frémion (1988) and Guarnaccia (1997). The first historical analysis of Provo has been provided by Pas (2003).
