Critical sociology

Social movements have become increasingly central in our world, and social scientists have analyzed them in many different ways. The author traces movement theories from the classical era of sociology to the most recent emphasis on transnational activism. This book identifies the socio-historical context, central concepts, and guiding logic of diverse movement theories. Examining shifting disciplinary boundaries, broader intellectual currents, and prevailing social activism, the author explains why theories posed different questions at different times and why paradigm shifts occurred when they did. -- from Back Cover.
