Within the voter turnout literature the impact of various institutional structures has been demonstrated in numerous studies. Curiously, a similar context driven research agenda exploring the correlates of non-electoral participation has not received the same attention. This study addresses this lacuna by testing a political opportunity structure model of citizen activism across 24 old and new democracies using ISSP (2004) data. Employing a multilevel modeling approach, this study tests a competition versus consensus conception of how decentralized institutions determine non-electoral participation. This research demonstrates that states with more competitive veto points operating through systems of horizontal and territorial decentralization increases individual non-electoral participation. More specifically, it interacts with social mobilization networks to promote greater citizen activism: institutional context counts only when citizens are mobilized.
