Social Movements and Organization Theory

Although the fields of organization theory and social movement theory have long been viewed as belonging to different worlds, recent events have intervened, reminding us that organizations are becoming more movement-like - more volatile and politicized - while movements are more likely to borrow strategies from organizations. Organization theory and social movement theory are two of the most vibrant areas within the social sciences. This collection of original essays and studies both calls for a closer connection between these fields and demonstrates the value of this interchange. Three introductory, programmatic essays by leading scholars in the two fields are followed by eight empirical studies that directly illustrate the benefits of this type of cross-pollination. The studies variously examine the processes by which movements become organized and the role of movement processes within and among organizations. The topics covered range from globalization and transnational social movement organizations to community recycling programs.

Globalization and Social Movements

Islamism, Feminism, and the Global Justice Movement

This clear and concise book examines social movements and transnational networks in the context of globalization in all its forms economic, political, cultural, and technological alike. Deftly combining nuanced theory with rich empirical examples, leading scholar Valentine M. Moghadam focuses especially on three transnational social movements Islamism, feminism, and global justice. Now updated to explore the European anti-austerity protests, the Arab Spring, and Occupy Wall Street, the book considers the ways in which these socio-political protests were affected especially by the role of young people and social networking media. The book also includes a new chapter on the democratic nature of social movements, or the ways in which social movements contribute to democratization at both national and global levels. Defining globalization as a complex process in which the movement of capital, peoples, organizations, movements, and ideas takes on an increasingly international form, the author shows how growing physical and electronic mobility has helped to create dynamic global social movements. Exploring the historical roots of Islamism, feminism, and global justice, the book also shows how these movements have been stimulated by relatively recent globalization processes. Moghadam examines similarities and differences among the three movements, along with internal differentiation within each. Her argument is informed by feminist, world-systems, world polity, and social movement theories in a seamlessly integrated framework that will be essential reading for all students of globalization."

Social Movement Campaigns on EU Policy

In the Corridors and in the Streets

This book investigates if and how social movement campaigns influence European policy, a particularly pertinent question in today's political climate of disillusionment with Europe in many member states. Using a range of campaigns launched by social movement organisations, from genetically modified organisms and Internet freedom to trade union rights and water rights, Parks elucidates the important differences between technical and political campaigns. Technical campaigns are characterised by extended engagement with consultation mechanisms and the production of expert information, particularly for the European Commission. In political campaigns, social movement organisations target the EU at national and local levels, using strategies reminiscent of social movements as they are more commonly known. A comparison of the campaigns suggests that targeting member state governments with protest and harnessing public opinion is central to securing influence over EU policy, and that where national and local levels are made integral to efforts in shaping European policy, influence is more likely.

This book assesses how much influence social movements have on EU policy and the means through which influence is secured.

What is a Social Movement?

Social movements play a central role in the scope and direction of social change. They were instrumental in the creation of the modern state and, today, are major forces in politics and culture. Environmentalism, gay rights, alterglobalization, and Islamic fundamentalism are all movements with far-reaching impacts on contemporary society. What is a Social Movement? traces how the study of movements such as these - of their structures, their ideas, and their repertoires of protest - have grown in recent years to become a major focus in the social sciences. It deftly navigates the organizational, ideational, and cultural complexity of political and social movements, and offers a succinct but comprehensive overview of the hows, whys, and wheretofores of studying them. The book analyzes how politics and culture frequently intersect as people participate in movements that call for change and pursue group interests. By focusing on movement organizations and networks, on what they do, and how they articulate their ideas of justice and collective interests, What is a Social Movement? lays the essential groundwork for understanding this significant and exciting field of research, where it came from, and where it is headed.

Gerakan Mahasiswa Makassar: Gerakan Counter hegemoni negara

Salah satu komponen dan kekuatan politik penting dari gerakan mahasiswa Indonesia adalah gerakan mahasiswa Makassar. Gerakan mahasiswa Makassar merupakan gerakan sosial yang selalu muncul dan cepat mereaksi terhadap berbagai policy Negara. Mahasiswa di berbagai kota masih berdiskusi tentang berbagai isu yang dianggap merugikan masyarakat, mahasiswa Makassar sudah bergerak ke jalan raya melakukan gerakan dengan keras, militant, dan melawan Negara. Gerakan mahasiswa Makassar selalu tampak keras, militan, kasar, dan konsisten melawan Negara. Atas dasar fenomena inilah riset ini dilakukan yaitu mengungkap terus menerus gerakan mahasiswa di Indonesia. Tulisan pendek berbentuk monograf ini mungkin belum bisa mengungkap berbagai aspek gerakan mahasiswa Makassar, tetapi secara analitis bisa menggambarkan gejala keras, militan, dan radikalisme gerakan mahasiswa Makassar. Memang saya berusaha untuk menulis terus berbagai gerakan mahasiswa Indonesia, termasuk gerakan mahasiswa Makassar agar studi gerakan mahasiswa menjadi studi ilmu politik yang penting. Oleh karena itu, keinginan untuk menulis lagi dalam bentuk buku seperti ini tentang gerakan mahasiswa merupakan kebutuhan akademik.
