  • Corporate movements: Silicon Valley businesses create and support apparently independent social movements advocating for deregulation

    Lyn Yates, Luke Yates•ARTICLE•Social movement studies•2024•References: 6

    This article introduces and discusses corporate movements, a contemporary phenomenon, in which social movement tactics are deployed in and for the benefit of corporations. Recently, new digital economy businesses have deployed social movement practices and language as part of campaigns for deregulation, building on and mainstreaming practices of ‘corporate grassroots lobbying’. From Uber creating dozens of corporate petitions aimed at authorities…

    The future -as a theme, research orientation, and mode of framing societal challenges -is becoming important in the social sciences.Yet the absence of collective action in many such accounts makes clear the potential contribution of social movement studies.In social movement studies, meanwhile, the future has been discussed directly and indirectly.Assumptions about timing, activist orientations towards the future, and causation are embedded in un…

  • How platform businesses mobilize their users and allies: Corporate grassroots lobbying and the Airbnb 'movement' for deregulation

    Open Access•Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Socio-Economic Review•2023•Cited by: 11•References: 32

    This article analyzes and theorizes the political strategies of businesses in the new digital 'platform' economy. Airbnb, Uber and meal delivery companies have transformed travel, urban space and repertoires of everyday exchange; they are also transforming norms around governance. Central to platforms corporate political strategies is the use of corporate grassroots lobbying (CGL), the selection, mobilization, resourcing and coordination of ordin…

  • How everyday life matters: Everyday Politics, Everyday Consumption and Social Change

    Open Access•Lyn Yates, Luke Yates•ARTICLE•Consumption and Society•2022•Cited by: 18•References: 26

    Everyday life, a nebulous and contested concept, is increasingly featuring in accounts of socioeconomic transformation. This article reviews its connections with consumption, sometimes referred to as ‘everyday consumption’; and to political action, ‘everyday politics’. It brings together different theoretical and empirical agendas to explore intersections and shifts in ideas around transformation. The first section describes the ways in which eve…

  • Prefigurative Politics and Social Movement Strategy: The Roles of Prefiguration in the Reproduction, Mobilisation and Coordination of Movements

    Open Access•Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Political Studies•2021•Cited by: 57•References: 29

    Recent work historicises and theoretically refines the concept of prefigurative politics. Yet disagreements over the question of whether or how it is politically effective remain. What roles does prefiguration play in strategies of transformation, and what implications does it have for understandings of strategy? The article begins to answer this question by tracking the concept’s use, from discussions of left strategy in the 1960s, a qualifier o…

  • The practices of collective action: Practice theory, sustainability transitions and social change

    Open Access•Danny Welch, Lyn Yates et al.•ARTICLE•Journal for the Theory of Social…•2018•Cited by: 39•References: 37

    Developing theory for understanding social transformation is essential for environmental sustainability, yet mainstream accounts of collective action neglect the dynamics of daily life. Theories of practice have proved generative for the study of sustainable consumption but struggle to accommodate the roles of collective actors, strategic action and purposive collective projects in social change. In response, this paper develops a practice theore…

  • Eating together and eating alone: Meal arrangements in British households

    Open Access•Lyn Yates, Luke Yates et al.•ARTICLE•British Journal of Sociology•2017•Cited by: 40•References: 28

    Sociology traditionally accounts for eating in terms of the social organization of meals, their provision and consumption. A recurrent public concern is that the meal is being subverted. This paper examines meal arrangements in British households in 2012, drawing on an online survey in the format of a food diary administered to 2784 members of a supermarket consumer panel. It charts the organization of contemporary eating occasions, paying attent…

  • Understanding Eating Events: Snacks and Meal Patterns in Great Britain

    Alan Warde, Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Food Culture & Society•2016•Cited by: 9•References: 6

    Sociological analysis of eating has for a long time tracked the fate of a popularly endorsed, idealized form of the “family” or “proper” meal. “Snacking” has often been constructed as its symbolic opposite, as irregular, anomic and unhealthy. This paper, based on data from a survey of eating patterns conducted in Great Britain in 2012 (n = 2,784), analyzes eating occasions which respondents stated were snacks rather than meals, focusing on their …

  • Sharing, households and sustainable consumption

    Open Access•Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Journal of Consumer Culture•2016•Cited by: 7•References: 9

    Recently, economists and environmental scientists have problematised households, showing that their reducing size in average number of inhabitants has implications for environmental sustainability due to losses in economies of scale. Findings suggest that resources are shared better when people live together. This article analyses this common domestic consumption, drawing on literature about households, sharing and sustainable consumption. It is …

  • Dirtying Linen: Re‐evaluating the sustainability of domestic laundry

    Open Access•Lyn Yates, Luke Yates et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Policy and Governance•2016•Cited by: 15•References: 6

    In tackling and negotiating responsibility for anthropogenic climate change, governments and businesses are increasingly concerned with shaping ‘consumer behaviour’, understood broadly as the ways in which people acquire, appropriate and appreciate goods and services. One intervention considered successful in this respect has been that of encouraging the low‐temperature washing of laundry in the UK in the last decade. This paper draws on data fro…

  • Everyday politics, social practices and movement networks: Daily life in Barcelona's social centres

    Open Access•Lyn Yates, Luke Yates•ARTICLE•British Journal of Sociology•2015•Cited by: 48•References: 28

    The relations between everyday life and political participation are of interest for much contemporary social science. Yet studies of social movement protest still pay disproportionate attention to moments of mobilization, and to movements with clear organizational boundaries, tactics and goals. Exceptions have explored collective identity, 'free spaces' and prefigurative politics, but such processes are framed as important only in accounting for …

  • Sexuality and Contemporary Literature

    Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Contemporary Women s Writing•2014

    “Sex in literature,” writes Feona Attwood in the foreword to Sexuality and Contemporary Literature, “has sometimes become associated with LGBTQ visibility or with a sex-positive approach, while the popular forms of chick lit, sex blogs, and erotic memoirs have made sex central to debates about sexuality, feminism, and postfeminism” (viii). Attwood draws attention to the multiple sources – electronic and paper, theoretical, factual, and fictional …

  • Too little and too much trust: Performance measurement in Australian higher education

    Peter Woelert, Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Critical Studies in Education•2014•Cited by: 7•References: 8

    A striking feature of contemporary Australian higher education governance is the strong emphasis on centralized, template style, metric-based, and consequential forms of performance measurement. Such emphasis is indicative of a low degree of political trust among the central authorities in Australia in the intrinsic capacity of universities and academics to do their work efficiently and effectively. At the same time, it is indicative of a deep-se…

  • Rethinking Prefiguration: Alternatives, Micropolitics and Goals in Social Movements

    Open Access•Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Social movement studies•2014•Cited by: 283•References: 6

    Theories and concepts for understanding the political logic of social movements' everyday activities, particularly those which relate directly to political goals, have been increasingly important since the late 1970s. The notion of 'prefigurative politics' is becoming established in this debate and refers to scenarios where protesters express the political 'ends' of their actions through their 'means', or where they create experimental or 'altern…

    This article revisits debates about inclusive education from the perspective of the Keeping Connected project, a qualitative longitudinal research project focusing on young people with health-related disrupted experiences of schooling. Drawing on findings from this project, three main arguments are advanced and illustrated in relation to inclusive education.

  • The story they want to tell, and the visual story as evidence: Young people, research authority and research purposes in the education and health domains

    Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Visual Studies•2010

    The decision to use participatory visual methods with young people in education, health or public policy research is linked to a desire to allow them to have some greater voice in the research and the professional activities that impact on their lives. But how that ‘voice’ is produced, whose voice it represents, and how the product of that research is used and interpreted are all contentious issues for researchers. This article analyses some of t…

  • Critical Consumption

    Open Access•Lyn Yates, Luke S Yates•ARTICLE•European Societies•2010•Cited by: 14•References: 10

    Critical consumption, the purchase or boycott of goods for political, ethical or environmental reasons, is regularly characterised as an example of ‘new politics’ or ‘new’ political participation. However, such analysis often neglects work from the sociology of consumption and social movement studies. This paper argues that consumers express their identity through critical consumption, in the form of a pledge of allegiance to the goals of certain…

Neither approach, he argued, could bring together a project that both engages the interests and learning needs of students and also is an adequate project of challenge to oppressive soci…

  • Knowledge in action: Doctoral Programmes Forging New Identities

    Janne Malfroy, Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Journal of Higher Education…•2003•Cited by: 3

    Pressures to link higher education to the workplace and industry environment have created a radically different climate for postgraduate research education, and, as universities struggle to accommodate new ways of structuring doctoral degrees and new ways of producing knowledge, there are indications that many traditional structures and management processes are under pressure to change. There are also suggestions that the emergence of new degrees…

  • The story they want to tell, and the visual story as evidence: Young people, research authority and research purposes in the education and health domains

    Lyn Yates•ARTICLE•Visual Studies•2010

But how that ‘voice’ is produced, whose voice it represents, and how the product of that research is used and interpreted are all contentious issues for researchers. This article analyses some of t…
