The paper assesses suitability of J. Davies’ model for simulation of short-term protest activity.
The authors make an attempt to show proximity of J. Davies’ model and synergetic paradigm of the
order parameter. The authors' modification of J. Davies’ model was given to display dissipative
formation of short-term protest activity. Special role of current expectations and beliefs of population
in formation of a protest was noted. In proposed modification of J. Davies’ model we offer to consider
ratio of negative expectations and related political reality. The model is verified by materials of
Ukrainian political process of the last two decades. In this article we show fundamental consistency
between retro-prediction of the model and real course of protest activity processes in Ukraine.
