Summary: This is the first full-length analysis of social movements from a cultural perspective. It considers different approaches to the study of culture, explains how movements are affected by their cultural environment, and examines the internal cultures within social movements themselves. The authors collectively represent the major advances in the cultural analysis of movements. In this ground-breaking volume, they present contributions of international significance, synthesizing "European" and "American" approaches for investigating social movements, and providing a fresh cultural dimension for those studying political sociology and comparative politics.
