Collective violence - Coups, Rebellions, Revolutions: Some violent collective behaviour is designed to change or overthrow governments. A coup d’état is the forcible removal of a head of government by the society’s own armed forces or internal security personnel. In a coup, the military takes action to overthrow the government with little or no involvement by the civilian population. Antagonistic relations between ethnic groups and rivalries within the military and civilian government are typical causes of coups. A rebellion involves large-scale violence directed against the state by its own civilian population. Rebellions try to change the government or some of its policies but not the society
Collective violence, violent behavior engaged in by large numbers of people responding to a common stimulus. At one extreme are riots or other spontaneous reactions to situations perceived as uncertain or threatening. At the other extreme are organized forms of collective violence, such as coups, rebellions, or war.
