The Transformation of Protest Politics
The central questions addressed in this Element are: How has protest politics changed over time, especially but not exclusively in the most recent times. And what are the implications and consequences of these transformations? In this vein, the Element identifies a number of processes of change as outlined in the literature, going from the expansion of the repertoires of contention to the normalization of protest and of the protesters, and the sh…
United in Diversity
This review article points to a number of ways in which the study of political participation has followed separate tracks, hence preventing it from deploying its full potential. We argue that the field stands to benefit much from ‘bridging’ different approaches and insights, combining those from different disciplines or subdisciplines. We review works that try to build such bridges, with the aim of encouraging dialogue across the disciplinary bou…
Intersectionality and inequalities in political participation in Europe
This paper contributes to the extant literature by providing a detailed analysis of political exclusion in Europe by examining intersectional inequalities. We apply a generalised concept of intersectionality that allows it to “travel” and examine different types of intersectional inequalities beyond the original aspects studied by the pioneering Black feminist struggles. Given historical patterns in the European context, we examine inequalities a…
Words are stones
This paper tests the effect of elite discourse on young people’s non-electoral political engagement. We hypothesize that statements by political elites that portray young people as alienated and as not very interested in politics have a negative impact on their likelihood of participating politically, while statements that portray them as integrated and interested in politics have a positive impact on their likelihood of participating politically…
New perspectives on gender and political mobilization
Taming Through Support? Youth Organisations and the Impact of Public Funding on Their Political Activities
This article investigates the relationship between public funding and the political activities of youth organisations in Europe. By analysing original data from a random sample of about 4500 youth organisations in nine countries generated through a content analysis of organisations’ websites, we examine the extent to which they engage in political activities. The analysis provides evidence for a negative impact of public funding on the engagement…
Differential Protest Participation Among Fridays for Future Climate Protesters
This article focuses on differential participation amongst climate change protesters and examines the links between objective, subjective, and relational determinants for shaping their differential levels of political activism. We examine to what extent occasional protesters differ from more committed participants and which explanatory factors are most relevant. How do climate change demonstrators differ in terms of their sociodemographic profile…
Citizenship and Precarity in the Time of the Covid-19 Pandemic
The research project "Citizenship and Precarity in the Time of the COVID-19 Pandemic" was conducted within the framework of the post-graduate program Global Politics and Society at the University of Milan, in collaboration with the Institute of Citizenship Studies at the University of Geneva, and Colorado Mesa University. The research sought to understand how exclusionary forces intersect to shape precarity in the everyday lives of individuals du…
A comprehensive framework tool for performance assessment of NBS for hydro-meteorological risk management
This paper describes an assessment framework tool to analyze the performance of nature-based solutions (NBS) for hydro-meteorological risk management. The tool is based on multi-criteria decision analysis within the context of NBSs, an umbrella concept currently in focus that promotes nature and provides ecological and socio-economic benefits. The proposed tool includes the selection and application of key performance indicators (KPIs) for the co…
Gendered opportunities across modes of political participation
We examine the role of ‘gendered opportunities’ for political participation by analysing original survey data covering nine European countries alongside relevant macro-level factors. We hypothesize that gender interacts differently with certain features of the broader context – here, government spending on public services – across various modes of participation, leading to ‘gendered opportunities’ for political engagement. By analysing data for t…
Intra-generational inequalities in young people’s political participation in Europe
The declining political engagement of youth is a concern in many European democracies. However, young people are also spearheading protest movements cross-nationally. While there has been research on political inequalities between generations or inter-generational differences, research looking at differences within youth itself, or inequalities between young people from different social backgrounds, particularly from a cross-national perspective,…
Youth doing politics in times of increasing inequalities
Particularly in the current context of rapid political change, it is crucial to understand the political participation of young people and what underpins their political engagement patterns as well the as the inequalities that may lie beneath them. While there is a rich literature on youth participation, to date we have lacked the data to carry out detailed subgroup analyses to understand differences in the political participation between differe…
Broadening political participation
This study builds on the well-known civic voluntarism model of political participation. By doing this, we contribute to a political sociology of participation by refining the role of socialisation in political engagement. We suggest that the action repertoires of young people engaging in politics can be narrower or broader owing to their previous embeddedness in certain social settings, which act as spheres of socialising practices. We focus more…
Environmental movements worldwide
This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book provides an overview of environmental movements in Western Europe. It looks at the other side of what once was called the Iron Curtain and focuses on the development of environmental activism and protest in Central Eastern Europe after 1989. The book examines environmental movements in Asia, and focuses on the Arab world – the Mi…
The Routledge Handbook of Environmental Movements
This volume provides up-to-date knowledge on environmental movements, activism, and is a reference point for international work in the field. It offers an assessment of environmental movements around the world, macrostructural, microstructural and social-psychological dimensions, current trends and prospects for social change
Party membership and social movement activism
This article examines the macro–micro dynamics linking party membership with protest participation. We theorise that institutional and extra-institutional engagement are mutually reinforcing and that party membership has a positive effect on party activism. We examine key ideational and structural factors identified in the literature to analyse the relative importance of various factors for party members’ involvement. We look at micro-macro-level…
Trust, Identity, Skills, or Recruitment
This article investigates the nature of the relationship between associational involvement and migrant political participation. We explore the extent to which empirical evidence supports the mechanisms proposed by four popular theories in the political participation literature: social capital, group consciousness, civic voluntarism, and mobilization theory. To do so, we employ a mediation-effect approach with data from random samples of migrants …
Talking About Youth
In this article, we employ data from comparative claims analysis of five major newspapers in nine European countries between 2010 and 2016 to examine discourse around youth. We look at the ways in which collective actors frame youth in the public domain and how this may provide discursive opportunities understood in terms of the extent to which public discourse portrays young people as agents of social change. More specifically, we argue that you…
Claiming and Framing Youth in the Public Domain During Times of Increasing Inequalities
Aiming to contribute to research on youth representation in the mainstream media, this special issue provides eight articles offering fresh empirical comparative analyses of the ways in which young people as well as issues concerning them are dealt with in the public domain. Applying political claims analysis on original data from the EURYKA project (European Commission, Horizon 2020), the special issue is focused on how youth-related claims are …
Contentious Europeans?
Street Citizens
What are protest politics and social movement activism today? What are their main features? To what extent can street citizens be seen as a force driving social and political change? Through analyses of original survey data on activists themselves, Marco Giugni and Maria T. Grasso explain the character of contemporary protest politics that we see today - the diverse motivations, social characteristics, values and networks that draw activists to e…
European citizens in times of crisis
Blame and contention
In this paper we analyse the extent to which perceptions of the government’s role in the economic crisis impacted on the political behaviour of European citizens. This includes contentious political activities such as attending public meetings, participating in demonstrations, and joining strikes, but also electoral behaviour in the form of voting against the incumbent. We examine data from 2015 since it allows us to examine European nations expe…
From contention to democracy
From Contention to Democracy addresses a crucial aspect of contemporary societies: the role of social movements for political and social change. The volume gathers together essays written by prominent social theorists who have been asked to reflect on the relationship between movements and processes of social, political and cultural change. Three broad types of movement-change nexus are distinguished and discussed: incorporation, transformation, …
The West European environmental movement
Contested Citizenship
From international press coverage of the French government's attempt to prevent Muslims from wearing headscarves to terrorist attacks in Madrid and the United States, questions of cultural identity and pluralism are at the center of the world's most urgent events and debates. Presenting an unprecedented wealth of empirical research garnered during ten years of a cross-cultural project, Contested Citizenship addresses these fundamental issues by c…
Was it Worth the Effort? The Outcomes and Consequences of Social Movements
Research on social movements has usually addressed issues of movement emergence and mobilization, yet has paid less attention to their outcomes and consequences. Although there exists a considerable amount of work on this aspect, little systematic research has been done so far. Most existing work focuses on political and policy outcomes of movements, whereas few studies address their broader cultural and institutional effects. Furthermore, we sti…
New social movements and political opportunities in Western Europe
We present a number of concepts and hypotheses concerning the impact of the political opportunity structure on the mobilisation pattern of new social movements in Western Europe. The hypotheses refer to the general level of mobilisation in a given country, the general forms and strategies of action employed, the system level at which mobilisation is typically oriented and the development of the level of mobilisation across time. The hypotheses ar…
Protest participation and economic crisis
The economic crisis that started in 2008 has negatively affected European nations to different degrees. The sudden rise in demonstrations particularly in those countries most hard hit by the crisis suggests that grievance theories, dismissed in favour of resource‐based models since the 1970s, might have a role to play in explaining protest behaviour. While most previous studies have tested these theories at the individual or contextual levels, it…
Useless Protest? A Time-Series Analysis of the Policy Outcomes of Ecology, Antinuclear, and Peace Movements in the United States, 1977-1995
I confront three models of the policy impact of social movements with data on the mobilization of ecology, antinuclear, and peace movements in the United States between 1975 and 1995 by means of time-series analysis: the direct-effect model, the indirect-effect model, and the joint-effect model. My analysis suggests that social movements have little, if any, impact on public policy and that, if they are to have an impact, it depends on the combin…
Migrant mobilization between political institutions and citizenship regimes
This article focuses on the political claims made by immigrants and ethnic minorities in France and Switzerland. We look at cross‐national variations in the overall presence of immigrants and ethnic minorities in the national public space, and the forms and content of their claims. Following a political opportunity approach, we argue that claim‐making is affected both by institutional opportunities and by national models of citizenship. The civic…
Resilient or Adaptable Islam
This article investigates multiculturalism by examining the relationship between migrants’ group demands and liberal states’ policies for politically accommodating cultural and religious difference. It focuses especially on Islam. The empirical research compares migrants’ claims-making for group demands in countries with different traditions for granting recognition to migrants’ cultural difference – Britain, France and the Netherlands. Overall, …
Institutional and Discursive Opportunities for Extreme-Right Mobilization in Five Countries
Inspired by spatial theories of political behavior and by work on the impact of immigration on national identity, in this article we propose an explanation of the extreme right's claim making based on the interplay of three factors: national models of citizenship, the dynamics of political alignments and party competition, and the strategic/organizational repertoires of the extreme right, in particular the electoral strength of extreme-right part…
Political Opportunities
A few years ago, Goodwin and Jasper (2004) depicted the political process approach to social movements as the dominant paradigm in the study of social movements and contentious politics.The concept of political opportunities lies at the core of this approach.Political opportunities can be defined broadly as "consistent but not necessarily formal, permanent, or national signals to social or political actors which either encourage or discourage the…
Under The Spotlight
Explanations of protest policing have neglected the "spotlight of the media." Based on data on repression and its media coverage in four Swiss cities from 1965 to 1994, our findings suggest that the mass media do have an impact on levels and forms of repression, along with political opportunity dimensions and levels of disruption. We identify two mechanisms. First, we show that the symbolic battles waged by protest groups and their outcomes affec…
Political, Biographical, and Cultural Consequences of Social Movements
This essay reviews recent and less recent literature on the consequences of social movements and protest activities. It focuses on three types of consequences: political, personal and biographical, and cultural. Political consequences and, in particular, policy outcomes receive most attention, as they are those which have been addresses most often by students of social movements. The review of existing work shows that the field is full of valuabl…
Political opportunities, citizenship models and political claim-making over Islam
This article engages with the systematic analysis of two main dimensions of political opportunities—namely institutional opportunities and discursive opportunities—so as to appraise their impact upon claim-making in the field of Islam. We account for cross-national variations of claim-making in terms of (1) visibility of Muslims, (2) use of collective action, and (3) salience of cultural issues in five main European countries of Muslim settlement…
The Policy Impact of Social Movements
This article reanalyzes the data of a previous study on the policy impact of antinuclear, ecology, and peace movements in three countries with the aim of replicating its findings. Our goal is to see whether using a different analytical technique will yield similar results. The previous study used a regression approach to time-series analysis. Here, we use qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) to analyze the previous study's data. Specifically, w…

Public discourses about Muslims and Islam in Europe
This article presents an overview of public discourse about Muslims in Europe, following work conducted between 2009 and 2012 by a consortium of six European research teams based in Belgium, Britain, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland (EURISLAM project, funded under the EU FP7). In so doing, the article introduces a number of themes that are tackled in other articles of the same special issue. The attention is focused on the more i…
Gender Gap and Turnout in the 2003 Federal Elections
We examine the gender gap in turnout in Switzerland by analysing the 2003 federal elections. Despite being a standard component in electoral studies, the gender variable is, in most cases, only used as a control variable and its effects and interaction are too often under-analysed. We focus on individual-level factors by looking at three types of explanations for the gender gap: (1) resources, (2) political motivations and attitudes, and (3) soci…
Welfare States, Political Opportunities, and the Mobilization of the Unemployed
This article follows a revised political opportunity approach to argue that mobilization of underprivileged groups is constrained by the political opportunity structures provided by the institutional context of the country in which they act. Contrary to traditional opportunity theories, it is suggested that their mobilization also depends on a set of opportunities specific to the political or issue field most directly addressed by their claims. I…

Party membership and social movement activism
This article examines the macro–micro dynamics linking party membership with protest participation. We theorise that institutional and extra-institutional engagement are mutually reinforcing and that party membership has a positive effect on party activism. We examine key ideational and structural factors identified in the literature to analyse the relative importance of various factors for party members’ involvement. We look at micro-macro-level…

How Civil Society Actors Responded to the Economic Crisis
We examine the relationship between material deprivation and different types of responses to economic crises by civil society actors. We are interested in understanding whether material deprivation has an effect on civil society reactions to the crisis and whether political opportunity factors contribute to this relationship. In particular, we wish to ascertain if the effect of material deprivation is moderated by perceptions of political stabili…
Does Associational Involvement Spur Political Integration? Political Interest and Participation of Three Immigrant Groups in Zurich
This article looks at the determinants of the political integration of migrants at the local level, focusing on two dimensions of political integration: political interest (attitudinal dimension) and political participation (behavioral dimension). Based on a representative survey among Italians, Kosovars, and Turks in the city of Zurich, we tested the thesis advanced by the social capital approach which posits a link between membership in volunta…
The Routledge Handbook of Environmental Movements
This volume provides up-to-date knowledge on environmental movements, activism, and is a reference point for international work in the field. It offers an assessment of environmental movements around the world, macrostructural, microstructural and social-psychological dimensions, current trends and prospects for social change
Political values and extra-institutional political participation
Previous studies have found that left-wing and libertarian individuals are more likely to engage in extra-institutional political activism. However, due to a lack of suitable data, studies to date have not analysed the relative influence of economic redistributive and social libertarian values for the intensity of protest participation. By analysing data from a unique cross-national dataset on participants in mass demonstrations in seven countrie…
Action Organization Analysis
The comprehensive and systematic study of collective action organizations (AOs) requires a new methodological approach that takes into account the rise of online sources as well as the new ways in which people interact and participate in politics. This article aims to present and situate in the related literature such an approach, which was recently created and applied in two European Commission funded research projects, LIVEWHAT and TransSOL, ac…

L'étude de l'action collective entre deux traditions sociologiques
L'étude de l'action collective et des mouvements sociaux a été caractérisée par deux grandes écoles. La tradition culturelle et sociologique européenne, qui présente des traits de l'idéalisme allemand et du holisme méthodologique, a conduit à étudier l'action collective principalement sur le plan théorique et macro‐sociologique. En revanche, la tradition américaine, plus axée sur le pragmatisme et l'individualisme méthodologique, a suggéré une an…
Federalismo E Movimenti Sociali
L'idea di un'Italia federale è entrata nel dibattito pubblico nel corso degli ultimi anni. Una delle cause principali di questa avanzata è certamente l'ascesa della Lega, che del federalismo ha fatto il suo credo fondamentale. Recentemente, l'idea di trasformare l'Italia da paese centralizzato e unitario (non dimentichiamo comunque il relativo decentramento avvenuto a partire dagli anni settanta attraverso il rafforzamento delle regioni) a stato …
Social Movements and Institutional Selectivity
Contrary to what is usually implied by work on the relationship between political opportunity structures and social movements, political institutions are not a general setting offering or denying formal access and political opportunities to every challenge, but rather favor certain types of movements and constrain others. This process of institutional selectivity depends on the relationship between the structure of a given political institution a…
New Social Movements in Western Europe
New social movements are defined as those that have arisen since the late sixties, and include the ecology, gay rights, peace, and women’s movements. This volume provides a cross-national comparison of the development, mobilization, and impact of new social movements in four Western European nations-France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. Seeking to move beyond classical theories of collective behavior, this study suggests that social …
The Other Side of the Coin
This exploratory essay provides a general framework for the study of crossnational similarities among social movements by looking at three broad social processes: globalization, structural affinity, and diffusion. Each of these concepts is at the core of three apparently rival explanations of movement similarities. The globalization model explains similarities among social movements as a product of similar movement reactions to transnational poli…

Political altruism
Political Altruism? Deals with participation in political activities aimed at defending the rights of other individuals and groups, such as asylum seekers, immigrant workers, populations of Third World countries, and people whose fundamental human rights are being harmed. Solidarity movements have become an important collective actor in contemporary western societies, yet virtually no scholarly work up to now has addressed them theoretically and …

Between Post‐nationalism and Neo‐institutionalism
This article attempts to assess the relevance of post‐nationalist and neo‐institutionalist theories to explain the structuring of public debates on immigration and ethnic relations in Switzerland. To escape the contradictory debate existing between proponents of these two theoretical perspectives, but above all to improve our knowledge of processes of globalization and of resistance by nation‐states in the field of migrations, we propose a system…
Ancien et nouvel institutionnalisme dans l’étude de la politique contestataire
Cet article s’intéresse à l’institutionnalisme dans l’étude de la politique contestataire. Nous faisons une distinction entre un ancien institutionnalisme qui met l’accent avant tout sur le rôle des institutions politiques et des opportunités institutionnelles (accès au système politique, configuration du pouvoir, stratégies des autorités, etc.), d’un côté, et un nouvel institutionnalisme qui se propose de réintroduire la notion de culture ainsi …

Récits, imaginaires collectifs et formes d'action protestataire
Cet article vise à repenser l’influence de la culture sur les phénomènes contestataires par le biais des récits sociaux et imaginaires collectifs. Les narrations collectives mettent à disposition un stock spécifique de ressources culturelles et symboliques, elles façonnent les identités des acteurs et, finalement, elles dessinent des opportunités discursives qui facilitent ou, au contraire, limitent l’engagement et l’expression politique des acte…
