Motivational Dimensions in Social Movements and Contentious Collective Action
For years, students of social movements and other forms of contentious action have been sharply divided over what motivates people to engage in protest. Early on, analysts generally agreed that participation in acts of protest was motivated by various deprivations pushing toward action. Newer perspectives began to reject these views, holding that grievances were permanent and ubiquitous, and could not therefore explain new forms of action. Goods …
Political Ambivalence towards the Parti Quebecois and its Electoral Consequences, 1970-2003
Political ambivalence towards the Parti Québécois remains a basic characteristic of Quebec electoral politics, but no attention has been paid to it by analysts. Yet the notion of ambivalence is central in Zaller's new synthesis concerning the nature of mass opinions. The ambivalence towards the Parti Québécois stems from opposite forces, that is, attraction towards it and reservations concerning its sovereignist option. While the analysis shows t…

Ethnic Movements and the Competition Model: Some Missing Links
The competition model of ethnic resurgence and the relevant evidence are critically examined. We note the absence of direct measures of competition in the research on ethnic movements and the mixed nature of the evidence it produced. More important, the model does not specify the links between competition and conflict. We offer a partial reformulation that stresses the necessary conditions under which ethnic competition leads to ethnic conflict: …

L'arrivée au pouvoir du Parti QuébécoisCet article examine I'ensemble des facteurs qui ont conduit le PQ au pouvoir à I'élection de 1976, et tout partkulièrement les facteurs qui ont fait la différence entre les précédentes « victoires morales » et la victoire électorate de 1976. Un facteur important semble avoir été la décision du parti de dissocier la décision sur I'indépendance de I'élection d'un gouvernement péquiste. Même si I'indépendance d…

The Independence Issue and the Polarization of the Electorate: The 1973 Quebec Election
Alors que le système des partis québécois continuait dans sa transformation radicale engagée depuis 1970, nous avons assisté au cours de l'élection provinciale de 1973 à une polarisation accentuée de l'électorat entre les Libéraux et le Parti Québécois. La thèse de cette étude est que cette polarisation fut le résultat de l'importance qu'a prise la question de l'indépendance du Québec au cours de cette élection. Après une courte recension de la l…
The Bases of Parti Québécois Support in Recent Quebec Elections
A l'aide de résultats électoraux et de données provenant de divers sondages, les auteurs tentent de trancher la controverse concernant l'influence de la classe sociale des électeurs sur leur propension à voter pour le Parti québécois. Ils constatent premièrement que toutes les études précédentes, sauf une, n'ont pas tenu compte de la langue d'usage des électeurs et, deuxièmement, que les résultats diffèrent selon que l'on a retenu, comme indice d…

Third Parties in Canada Revisited: A Rejoinder and Elaboration of the Theory of One-Party Dominance
If the importance of one-party dominance as a determinant of the rise of third parties were to be evaluated on the basis of the attention it has already received from political scientists, we would have to conclude that it must not be negligible. Obviously, however, this would not be a proper way of evaluating a theory. Fortunately, its importance rests on other grounds. Apart from my own quantitative and qualitative evidence, there is now Graham…
The Organizational Substructure of Disorderly Politics
According to the theory of mass society, organizational membership drags people into routine politics, while discouraging participation in direct action movements. The thesis of this paper is that this theory needs severe modification. First, for an important class of organizations—organizations with goals unincorporated by the larger society or containing members with interests or values that are unincorporated—membership increases rather than i…

L'echec repete des partis politiques de gauche au Quebec est generalement attri‐bue au conservatisme et au nationalisme de la classe ouvriere canadienne‐fran‐caise. Cependant, quand on considere l'appui disproportions des ouvriers pour l'Union Nationale, il appert que cet appui ne peut s'expliquer par de telles attitudes. Nous suggerons plutot que la montee de l'Union Nationale durant les an‐nees de 1935 a 1936 represente surtout la montee d'un m…

The Disintegration of the Negro Non-Violent Movement
The Conditions of Direct Action in a Democratic Society
N 1960, northern Negroes were still largely unincorporated into political system in spite of fact that they had right to vote, to organize pressure groups, and to use most methods of routine politics.' Both structure of American politics and peculiarities of Negro social structure had prevented this. At national level, liberal politicians sympathetic to Negro grievances found it necessary to ally with Southerners in order to get other liberal leg…

Mass Society and Political Movements: A New Formulation
The theory of mass society is criticized for its consideration of the sole restraining effects of primary and secondary groupings and for its failure to recognize that these groupings can also remain neutral or exert mobilizing effects, that they have important communicating effects for the diffusion of a new movement, and that these effects are strongly affected by the presence of strains, a factor which is underestimated by mass theory. On the …

Structural Attachments and Political Support in Urban Politics: The Case of Fluoridation Referendums
The hypothesis is set forth that the adoption or rejection of fluoridation referendums, as well as the degree of unanimity, is a function of the structural integration of the community. More specifically, it is a function of the attachments of community members to their power elites and of the interconnectedness between members. Using 262 communities as units of analysis, several indicators of the independent variable are obtained from census dat…

Poverty and Political Movements
This paper tries to demonstrate that the poor, contrary to what might be expected, are never the first joiners of new political movements, whether they be of the right or of the left. This is primarily documented with data from a survey on the rise of the Social Credit part in Quebec federal politics in 1962, but also by reference to other movements, such as the socialist C.C.F. party in Western Canada, the Poujadist movement in France, and Goldw…
