Social Movements and Protest Paperback / softback
by Gemma (University of Manchester) Edwards
Part of the Key Topics in Sociology series
Paperback / softback
Description
This lively textbook integrates theory and methodology into the study of social movements, and includes contemporary case studies to engage students and encourage them to apply theories critically.
A wide range of protest cases are explored, from American, European and global arenas, including contemporary examples of political violence and terrorism, alter-globalisation, social networking and global activism.
Key chapter features encourage students to engage critically with the material: method points uncover the methodology behind the theories, helping students to understand the larger study of social movements; debate points highlight classic arguments in social movement studies, encouraging students to critically assess theoretical approaches; and case studies connect theories to cases, allowing students to relate key principles to real-world examples.
A companion website offers additional student and instructor resources, including lecture slides and worksheets.
