***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org ***** Well, as far as riots can be assumed to be forms of contentious collective action (I'm talking in general not in the current context of France), then there is a fast literature on social movements and social networks. For example: Diani, M., & McAdam, D. (eds.) (2003). Social Movements and Networks. Relational Approaches to Collective Action. Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press. Diani, M. (2004). Networks and participation. In D.A. Snow, S.A. Soule & H. Kriesi (eds.), The Blackwell Companion to Social Movements, pp. 339-359. Malden, MA: Blackwell Publishing.
