`There has been an unprecented flourishing of new social movements around the world in recent years. This revival has opened our eyes to wider horizons, and strengthened our confidence in the fact that "another world is possible". Giri's book gives inspiring glimpses of this process' - Jean Dreze, Visiting Professor, Delhi School of Economics `A book that gives voice to the unsuing heroes of the worldwide strugle for social justice... and which the huge reservoir of creativity that resides in contemporary social movements' - John Clammer, Professor of Comparative Culture, Sophia University, Tokyo This book describes the visions, experiments, struggles and aspirations of various social movements and voluntary organizations from India and other parts of the world which are striving to achieve tribal development, community development, education, housing, human rights and economic development. Combining theoretical reflection with fieldwork, the author goes beyond a description of the activities of these movements and organizations to engage in a critical dialogue where participants critique their lives and their organizations. In doing so, a two-way learning process between scholars and activists can be developed.

This open access book provides a comprehensive mapping of anti-gender mobilizations in Italy, Slovenia, France, Spain, Turkey, Poland, Greece, and Denmark. In recent years, Europe has witnessed the rise and consolidation of these mobilizations, posing significant challenges to progress in equality politics. While analyzing the key actors, strategies, and discourses driving these movements, the book also shifts its focus to feminist and LGBT+ resistance. Drawing on interviews with activists from eight European countries, it identifies key opposition strategies that increasingly reflect productive resistance. By examining these evolving forms of activism, the book sheds light on the threats posed by anti-gender mobilizations and the innovative responses that sustain feminist and LGBT+ movements in today’s struggles. It will be of interest to researchers and students in gender studies, feminist studies, political sociology, and comparative politics.

Beth Simmons demonstrates through a combination of statistical analysis and case studies that the ratification of treaties generally leads to better human rights practices. She argues that international human rights law should get more practical and rhetorical support from the international community as a supplement to broader efforts to address conflict, development, and democratization.

CMMM is a project that accompanied and was oriented by the priorities of municipalist activists in Belgrade, Berlin, and Barcelona. Spanning over 3.5 years from 2019 to 2023, it captured and supported the efforts of the Ministry of Space collective, AKS Gemeinwohl, Häuser Bewegen GIMA eG., Kollektiv Raumstation, and Observatori DESC to change the political paradigms shaping the contemporary housing emergency in the three cities. Coordinated by K LAB (TU Berlin) and supported by the Robert Bosch Stiftung, the CMMM team employed various formats of critical mapping to display the legislations, policies, events, hierarchies, as well as the main actors and factors that are shaping the housing crisis. Next to selected examples of how critical mapping has been applied by peers and artists in the three cities, this book scripts the process through which our team created three interactive maps “How (un)affordable is housing in Belgrade?”, “Who buys Berlin?”, and “Stop Evictions!” for Barcelona, which can be explored on the project’s website: cmmm.eu. CMMM‘s outputs intend to support existing and future municipalist activists and collectives pushing to create policy alternatives that integrate the “housing as a right” principle. We hope that our work inspires activists and engaged professionals to employ critical mapping in their endeavors to inform and nudge public opinion, towards advancing demands for justice in the urban and beyond. CMMM ist ein Projekt, das die Prioritäten von städtischen bzw. nachbarschaftlichen Aktivisten in Belgrad, Berlin und Barcelona begleitet und sich an ihnen orientiert. Es erstreckte sich über dreieinhalb Jahre von 2019 bis 2023 und erfasste und unterstützte die Bemühungen von Ministry of Space collective, AKS Gemeinwohl, Häuser Bewegen GIMA eG, Kollektiv Raumstation und Observatori DESC, die politischen Paradigmen, die den Wohnungsnotstand in den drei Städten prägen, durch verschiedene Formate der kritischen Kartierung zu verändern. Unter der Koordination des LABOR K (TU Berlin) und mit Hilfe eines Stipendiums der Robert Bosch Stiftung haben wir Gesetze, Politiken, Ereignisse, Hierarchien und einige der wichtigsten Akteure und Faktoren, die die Wohnsituation prägen, kartiert. Darüber hinaus enthält dieses Buch ausgewählte Beispiele dafür, wie kritisches Mapping in den drei Städten angewandt wurde, und es beschreibt, wie unser Team die drei interaktiven Karten "How (un)affordable is housing in Belgrade?", "Who buys Berlin?" und "Stop Evictions!" für Barcelona erstellt hat, die auf der Projektwebsite cmmm.eu eingesehen werden können. Durch die verschiedenen CMMM-Materialien in diesem Buch und auf der Projektwebsite stellen wir Informationen zur Verfügung, um heutige und künftige Bewegungen und Kollektive die darauf drängen, politische Alternativen zu schaffen, und die das Prinzip “Recht auf Wohnen" in politische Programme zu integrieren versuchen, zu unterstützen. Zudem hoffen wir, Aktivist*innen, engagierte Fachleute, Wissenschaftler*innen und andere dazu zu inspirieren mit Hilfe von kritischem Mapping die öffentliche Meinung und die allgemeine Wahrnehmung zu beeinflussen, und den Diskurs zu beflügeln um Forderungen nach Gerechtigkeit in der Stadt und darüber hinaus voranzutreiben.

The Umbrella Movement in Hong Kong caught the world’s attention and imagination at the end of 2014. The 79-day occupation campaign took on some of the characteristics of the recent wave of large-scale protest movements around the world, including the prominent roles played by the media – both conventional and digital – in the mobilization and communication processes of the movement. This edited volume, Media, Mobilization and the Umbrella Movement, brings together nine contributions which examine various aspects of the media-movement nexus, including the power of televised images to mobilize people, the role of social media in the insurgent public sphere, young activists’ social media strategies, media influence on citizens’ understanding of civil disobedience, the government’s response to digital media tactics, public discourses about the rule of law, and local and foreign media coverage of the movement. We believe that this high-quality collection can not only enhance our understanding of the Umbrella Movement, but also facilitate and trigger more research and dialogue comparing the Umbrella Movement with other similar protest movements around the world. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Chinese Journal of Communication.

This fascinating collection of essays charts, for the first time, the range of responses by scholars on both sides of the conflict to the outbreak of war in August 1914. The volume examines how biblical scholars, like their compatriots from every walk of life, responded to the great crisis they faced, and, with relatively few exceptions, were keen to contribute to the war effort. Some joined up as soldiers. More commonly, however, biblical scholars and theologians put pen to paper as part of the torrent of patriotic publication that arose both in the United Kingdom and in Germany. The contributors reveal that, in many cases, scholars were repeating or refining common arguments about the responsibility for the war. In Germany and Britain, where the Bible was still central to a Protestant national culture, we also find numerous more specialized works, where biblical scholars brought their own disciplinary expertise to bear on the matter of war in general, and this war in particular. The volume's contributors thus offer new insights into the place of both the Bible and biblical scholarship in early 20th-century culture.

The year 2011 marked the emergence of a series of mobilizations of the indignant that spread like wildfire around the world—from the Arab Spring to Europe, and soon afterwards to Occupy Wall Street, the Spanish 15M was pivotal to the transnational diffusion of protest. This volume analyzes the features that turned the 15M into a beacon for international mobilization, and those that garnered it unprecedented domestic support, surpassing historic socio-economic and politico-ideological fractures in Spain. It also delves into its gradual demise, and its profound impact on the emergence of political "offsprings" that portray themselves as heirs to the 15M spirit, such as Podemos. This book sheds new light on the 15M phenomenon, providing an international perspective that rejects cultural, economic, and even political reductionism. Including insights from sociologists and political scientists from around the world, it explores themes such as identity, emotion, cultural resources, the media, and the relationship between social movements, regional institutions and the state. Each chapter reflects on the impact and legacy of the 15M movement, as well as the important questions it raises about the current theoretical framework for social movements in Spain and beyond. Crisis and Social Mobilization in Contemporary Spain: The 15M Movement is a fascinating read for all students and scholars with interests in political sociology and social movements.
