Talk:Jeans Revolution

message: See Talk:Belarusian presidential election, 2006. That's the problem with well-meaning original research. Newspapers should be source of information about news, not about definitions of things. Journalists rarely dig deep. mikka (t) 20:14, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Part of the objections on the deletion discussion relate to whether or not the Jeans Revolution is a real revolution or not.
Well, as pointed out on Revolution#Color_revolutions, or rather, being even more careful, it's not clear whether any of the color revolutions are genuinely revolutions, in the sense of:
*A revolution is a relatively sudden, and absolutely drastic change (a "complete turn-around"). This may be a change in the social or political institutions over a relatively short period of time, or a major change in its culture or economy. Some revolutions are led by the majority of the populace of a nation, others by a small band of revolutionaries. Compare rebellion.
That article uses the term political revolutions. So far, there has been no change in government/head of state due to the Jeans Revolution. On the other hand, 10,000 people gathering in the central square was apparently unprecedented in recent Belarus history - so it may qualify as a relatively important change in the way belarusians do politics. Anyway, to satisfy people complaining that it's not a revolution, maybe we should add something like the following to the first paragraph:
*As of late March, 2006, these efforts and aspirations had not caused a change in government of Belarus, so despite the name, they may not constitute a true revolution.
