Line 2: {{Revolution sidebar}} {{Other uses}} A "'''boycott"''' is an act of [[nonviolent resistance\|nonviolent]], voluntary abstention from a product, person, organization, or country as an expression of protest. It is usually for [[Morality\|moral]], [[society\|social]], [[politics\|political]], or [[Environmentalism\|environmental]] reasons. The purpose of a boycott is to inflict some [[economic loss]] on the target, or to indicate a moral outrage, usually to try to compel the target to alter an objectionable behavior. The word is named after Captain [[Charles Boycott]], agent of an absentee landlord in Ireland, against whom the tactic was successfully employed after a suggestion by Irish nationalist leader [[Charles Stewart Parnell]] and his [[Irish Land League]] in 1880.
