This dissertation is an exploration of protest and its management in Mexico. It seeks to understand not only the factors that increase the likelihood of protest success, but also those that increase violence---either on the part of state actors in the form of protest event repression or on the part of protesters in the form of protest violence. The central argument is that state capacity plays a key role in shaping protest and its management. Protest management is a complex task, requiring institutional resources and skilled state authorities. In short, state agents must know when and how to intervene. When states have high capacity they are better able to avoid violence and employ a conciliatory approach. When states lack capacity, protest management tends to break down, making both repression and violence on the part of protesters more likely. The argument is tested using original micro-level data on Mexican protest events and responses, and leverages within-country variations in democracy and state capacity. In making the argument, the study also makes a case for a particular conception of state capacity, emphasizing the state's ability to penetrate society and implement binding rules. I demonstrate that there is a greater likelihood of concessions in high capacity states, while repression and protest violence are more likely in low capacity states.
