Time magazine has chosen The Protester as its person of the year, in tribute to the popular demonstrations that defined 2011.
From the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street and the recent Russian rallies, Time magazine says protesters have “redefined people power” around the world and been the force behind the biggest news stories of the past 12 months.
“Massive and effective street protest was a global oxymoron until – suddenly, shockingly – starting exactly a year ago, it became the defining trope of our times,” the article, penned by Kurt Andersen, reads.
“And the protester once again became a maker of history.”
The runner-up was Admiral William McRaven, the commander of the US raid that killed the Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
