Protest activity-street actions, which have many forms and themes, are used by both parliamentary and nonparliamentary parties, which have a formal status (registered) and informal (unregistered) parties . Until 2011– 2012, these methods of political work were used primarily by parties calling themselves opposition, but after mass ‘white ribbon’ protests of so-called angry citizens, this method of attracting attention and mobilising supporters was actively used by pro-presidential/pro-government parties . Previously published works have already investigated the forms and frequency of street actions [1, 2] . In this article, the results of the study will be supplemented by an analysis of the use of street actions by parties as a form of agitation during the 2016 state Duma elections .
