Abstract

[As it is discussed above, regardless of the morally shocking incidents, the import of external resources or the rise of grassroots leaders, there is a certain contingency and randomness in the initial release of vigor. In particular, the role of grassroots leaders seems to be both critical and ambiguous. No matter the base of moral courage, interest consideration, or life grievances, their rise has a certain degree of randomness. However, in the cases under study, in the period as short as 4 or 5 ;years, or as long as a decade, the contentious activities are both tortuous and hard to advance; they are both unpredictable and well organized. Though grassroots participants suffer from the activities, and are even thrown into jail, they are still as firm and persistent as ever. Obviously, those factors of contingency, randomness, and anger are not enough to support these long-lasting contentions.]
