Abstract
At different times, the society has witnessed political activism in the public and private arenas by different strata. During collective actions and in the shadow of strategies, people adopt certain tactics. Students are a segment of the society that sometimes enter the field as political activists and pursue demands. In this article, relying on the appropriate conceptual framework and thematic analysis method, the political activism of female students has been studied from the perspective of using various tactics. The findings of the research show that the protest tactics of female students are divided into two general categories: speech (expression) tactics and resistance tactics. The first category includes verbal, linguistic, behavioral and visual statements and positive requests and negative criticisms, and the second category includes resistance actions in daily life. Tactics are also classified by type into two categories: confrontational actions (coercive) and constructive actions (persuasive), which are applied under the umbrella of two major strategies, changing laws and creating a political open space. The participants have continuously and for a long time wanted to create and expand the political open space as well as change some laws, including gender laws in the university and at the level of everyday life.
