What's New in Revolutions
Power in Movement: Social Movements and Contentious Politics
Social movements have an elusive power but one that is altogether real. From the French and American revolutions to the Arab Spring, and to ethnic and terrorist movements of today, contentious politics exercises a fleeting but powerful influence on politics, society and international relations. Covering key episodes up to the attack on the US Capitol in January 2021, leading scholar of politics and government Sidney Tarrow uses a number of recent…
Suppression by Stealth: The Partisan Response to Protest in State Legislatures
Many scholars have investigated the relationship between protest and repression. Less often examined is the legislative suppression of protest by elites seeking to make protest more costly to protesters. Because state legislatures are largely invisible to the public, this “wholesale” suppression of protest is less likely to trigger public opposition than repression by the police. This study explains the sharp increase in the number and the severi…
Comparative Theory and Political Experience: Mario Einaudi and the Liberal Tradition
Through his influential writings integrating the heritage of classical political theory with the perspective of modern comparative politics, Mario Einaudi has demonstrated how the twentieth-century political scientist can advance the eighteenth-century philosopher's pursuit of institutions that ensure freedom and civic virtue.Editors Katzenstein, Lowi, and Tarrow have brought together essays illuminating the creative tension in Einaudi's work bet…
Communism in Italy and France
The contributors to this volume address themselves to the growth, behavior, and prospects of the two largest Communist parties in Western Europe. The book deals in particular with the adaptation of the French and Italian Communist parties to the secular changes in their advanced societies. It emphasizes the different attempts made by each party's leaders to participate actively and fruitfully in parliamentary political systems.Originally publishe…
Strangers at the Gates: Movements and States in Contentious Politics
This book contains the products of work carried out over four decades of research in Italy, France and the United States, and in the intellectual territory between social movements, comparative politics, and historical sociology. Using a variety of methods ranging from statistical analysis to historical case studies to linguistic analysis, the book centers on historical catalogs of protest events and cycles of collective action. Sidney Tarrow pla…
Power in Movement: Social Movements and Contentious Politics
Social movements have an elusive power but one that is altogether real. From the French and American revolutions to the post-Soviet, ethnic and terrorist movements of today, contentious politics exercises a fleeting but powerful influence on politics, society and international relations. This study surveys the modern history of the modern social movements in the West and their diffusion to the global South through war, colonialism and diffusion, …
The social movement society: Contentious Politics for a New Century
Power in Movement: Social Movements and Contentious Politics
Unlike political or economic institutions, social movements have an elusive power, but one that is no less real. From the French and American revolutions through the democratic and workers' movements of the nineteenth century to the totalitarian movements of today, movements exercise a fleeting but powerful influence on politics and society. This study surveys the history of the social movement, puts forward a theory of collective action to expla…
Struggle, politics, and reform: Collective Action, Social Movements and Cycles of Protest
The Study of French Political Socialization: Toward the Revocation of Paradox
Whereas in post-war Britain youth has often channelled its energies into violent self-expression, destructive or creative, in France the dominant impression left by all the varying tendencies is of a kind of docile listiessness.” A competent British commentator on French politics and society had the misfortune of appearing in print with this assertion about French youth in June of 1968—that is, at precisely the time when many members of France's …
Ideology, Economic Change and the Working Classes: The Case of Italy
Political Dualism and Italian Communism
The poverty of philosophy, for Marx, was its formalism. The social sciences, in contrast, are blessed with the ability to adjust theory to experience. In our study of Marxist movements, however, we lack precisely the marxian flexibility we need to overcome a patrimony of ideology, misinformation and rigidity. Writers like Duverger and Selznick, for example, talk about "devotee parties" and "organizational weapons" without considering that their t…
