Abstract
This chapter describes the methods used for coding participants’ responses to two items on the Personal and Institutional Rights to Governmental Aggression and Peace Survey: “Individuals have the right to stage protests against war and in favor of peace” and “police are beating peaceful anti-war demonstrators. What would you want to do?” First, this chapter provides a brief overview of laws concerning the right to protest. Next, the process of creating the protest manual is described, along with the coding manual itself. This chapter concludes with an explanation of how the responses were analyzed and an overview of the subsequent chapters’ structure.
