Drawing on the foremost decades of leading scholarship, the volume explores the legacy, outcomes, and lessons learned from this movement, shedding light on its significance in understanding mobilization during times of crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book begins with a theoretical exploration of the positive ways in which social movements can contribute to the development of democratic societies. By challenging prevailing notions and offering fresh perspectives, it significantly advances the field of social movement studies. Furthermore, the book provides rich case studies that cover a wide range of topics relevant to scholars interested in social movements. These chapters delve into various aspects, including the personal consequences of participation in social movements, the influence of movement memories on subsequent mobilizations, the reciprocal relationship between the 15-M movement and feminist economics, the transformative impact of municipalism on urban democracy, the emergence of a \"Caring democracy\" in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the creation of a new radical democratic media ecosystem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to examining the political economy of the 15-M movement, the book also reflects on one of its unintended consequences: the rise of the penalization of counter-hegemonic protest in contemporary Spain. While the movement's focus is on a single emblematic event, its insights and lessons extend far beyond its immediate context, offering valuable insights into contemporary politics and movements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRe-imagining Democracy serves as a valuable resource for scholars and students seeking to understand the complexities of contemporary democracies, the dynamics of social movements in times of crisis, and the profound impact of social movements on modern democracy. The chapters in this book were originally published as a peer-reviewed special issue of Social Movement Studies, further testament to their academic significance and relevance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 540g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 174 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032590110\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44784735420666,"sku":"9781032590110","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1700217668217_book.jpg?v=1700330478","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/reimagining-democracy-legacy-impact-and-lessons-of-spains-15m-movement-9781032590110","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
