| In recent years, there has been a surge in social movement theorizing known as the contentious politics approach to studying political protest activity. In 2002, a conference sponsored by the Collective Behavior and Social Movements Section of the American Sociological Associationwas held at the University of Notre Dame to consider, in part, this development in field. But the conference organizers also wanted to consider more broadly what we collectively consider to be social movement research and theorizing. In part, this means moving beyond a state-centeredview of contentious politicsand toward a more open definition of whatmight be fruitfully examined by social movement theories- and in turn what might inform those theories even as we use then in more traditional social movementarenas. This volume represents some of the fruits of that conference and includes four sections that defines social movementauthorities challenges beyond state targets, expands our notions of what constitutes repression of social movement activity, examines challenges to cultural authorities and processes, and illustrates the broader notions of authority challenge in three case studies of corporate systems. With this volume, "Research in Social Movements, Conflict and Change" celebrates its25thanniversary and a history of publishing important, leading edge research and theorizing in theareaspf protest, social conflict, and political change |
