‘Protest’ is something which is very inherent in human nature and is the true manifestation of one’s disagreement with the current state of affairs. It is a tool used by the common man/woman to take what is rightly his/her. There are various forms of protest in the world with different means but each of them has the same intention i.e to show dissent and resist oppression. In this article I have analysed four major protests which were carried out in the history of mankind. Starting with the first documented protest in the world which took place in England in 1215, resulting into the granting of a charter of civil rights by the king to his citizens which came to be known as the ‘Magna Carta’. Then I have written about the French Revolution which took place in 1787 and laid the foundation of people’s rule and civil rights. The next protest which I have mentioned is popularly known as the ‘Cedar Revolution’ which took place in Lebanon in 2005 and sparked various protests in the ‘Arab Springs’ for the want of self-rule and democracy. And the last protest which I have written about is the #METOO revolution which gained momentum in 2018 and was a first of its kind ‘Social Media’ protest garnering support from all over the world. Hence, throughout this article I have compared the essential characteristics of all the four protests thereby analyzing the changes and differences in the protests taking place in the 21st Century.

This article aims to identify what are the differences between the movement that takes place in society and the protests.
We can analyze these by 3 aspects of a protest:
• The dynamics of disconnection, fickleness and the alteration.
• The secular and the structural limitations as the challenges to the society’s order.
• The challenged political specifications of the protesters. in this article, I would specify how the protests are different from the social movements. Riots should not be identified as being a united event they should be ventilated into several smaller events in which the various supporters, the repertoires and their reason for participation should not be different rather opposed. Protests always communicated and are surrounded by the socio-economic and geographical immobility of the participants in the dissimilarity of the social movements. They can shift their remilitarization to a greater geographical and political scale. Finally, claims are made and political identities in protest are challenged perceptions about politics that are supported by strict dualism, like political or non-political. However, taking under consideration these differences, the two concepts shouldn’t be compared or acknowledged mutually exclusive, since protests may happen within a society’s movement cycles of protest (e.g., the Watts riots of 1965 it occurred within the wide context of the civil rights)
