Social Movements, 1768 - 2018, 4th Edition, is a textbook that traces the historical emergence, evolution, and global spread of social movements over two and a half centuries. Drawing on historical vignettes and examples, it explains how collective mobilizations operate as a distinct form of contentious politics aimed at reducing categorical inequalities.
The volume balances conceptual analysis with empirical inquiry. It surveys the development of social movements across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and pairs long-term historical trajectories with case studies of contemporary mobilizations in Mexico, Spain, and the United States.
Prepared for students and researchers, the 2020 edition incorporates timelines and discussion questions designed to support classroom examination of historical and ongoing mobilizations.
