It serves as a comprehensive and classroom-tested resource for students seeking to delve into the core components, theories, and methods employed in studying social movements. Organized in a manner that aligns with the major subfields of social movement scholarship—framing, movement emergence, recruitment, and outcomes—this book offers a comprehensive coverage of the field in a single core text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the key features of Social Movements is its use of real data collected from various locations around the world. This authentic data brings social movements to life, allowing students to connect with the real-world experiences and struggles of marginalized communities. The emphasis on student learning outcomes ensures that the book is designed to facilitate active engagement and understanding. Case studies, drawn from a wide range of social movements, provide practical examples of the strategies and tactics employed by these groups. These case studies are accompanied by examples of cultural repertoires, such as flyers, pamphlets, event data on activist websites, illustrations by activist musicians, that are used to mobilize and inspire a group.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTopics covered in Social Movements include immigrant rights, transnational movements for climate justice, Women's Marches, Fight for $15, Occupy Wall Street, Gun Violence, Black Lives Matter, and the mobilization of popular movements in the global South on issues of authoritarian rule and neoliberalism. By exploring these diverse topics, students deepen their understanding of movement dynamics, methods of investigation, and dominant theoretical perspectives. They are also challenged to consider their own place in relation to social movements, reflecting on the ways in which they can contribute to and participate in collective action for social change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, Social Movements is an essential resource for students, educators, and activists seeking to understand the complexities of social movements and their role in shaping society. With its comprehensive coverage, real-world data, and emphasis on student learning outcomes, this book provides a valuable foundation for anyone interested in exploring the power of collective action and mobilizing for social justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 338g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 154 x 229 x 17 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780520290914                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul Almeida","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094820483322,"sku":"9780520290914","price":24.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/aa06df85cf8a8241110a433b1c990924.jpg?v=1626661235","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/social-movements-the-structure-of-collective-mobilization","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
