Summary/Abstract: This article represents a brief theoretical overview of the contentious politics field. Its broad aim is to present the emergence of a research domain and of its basic characteristics. But, more importantly, the purpose is to highlight its approach toward political protest and toward the outcomes of contentious politics across time and space. In this way we can shape a framework of intepretation that can help us better understand and explain events otherwise difficult to be seen through a thoretical lense. And this could be the more helpful in a political reality that borught protest in the centre stage of political activity, both internally, in Romania, as well as as externally, in Europe and elsewhere.
