We thank Kevin McDonald for bringing the ‘living science’ concept propagated by Sociopedia.isa into practice. We appreciate the opportunity to respond to a number of remarks made by him. We would like to take issue with (1) the notion of ‘ protest’ versus ‘action’; (2) the history of the concept of ‘identity’ in contentious politics; and (3) the adequacy of the toolboxes of social psychology to study contemporary protest.
