Article Synopsis
- - The 2005 French riots began in a poor Paris suburb and spread across France for about three weeks, showcasing dramatic collective behavior and epidemic-like dynamics.
- - Researchers utilized daily national police data to create a model that explained how the riots propagated, highlighting the significant influence of neighborhood deprivation and geographic proximity on the spread of unrest.
