What explains global patterns of climate activism? A macro-level, cross-national analysis of collective environmental action
Activism in response to climate and ecological breakdown is a defining feature of 21st-century societies. Yet, the factors underpinning its global variation remain insufficiently understood. We address this research puzzle through a cross-national analysis of collective environmental action events between 2018 and 2022: a pivotal moment in climate mobilisation. Drawing on an original dataset of 25,626 events across 148 countries, our findings sug…
Power of Inter‐Chapter Distance: Shaping Social Movement Networks in Extinction Rebellion Australia
This paper examines how distance impacts the network of connections across social movement organisations. Much of the social movements research on scale and spatiality has focused on micro (the immediate vicinity in protest events) and macro levels (local‐global connections), with limited attention paid to the role played by distance in shaping networks across a single country context. To examine this phenomenon, we analyse Extinction Rebellion A…
What change? Assessing the Extinction Rebellion’s support for climate assemblies
Party in the movement: Backstage partyisation in austerity Portugal
In the past decade, research has increasingly highlighted the importance of political parties in protest arenas, yet has focused mainly on their visible roles in mobilisation. Analysing Portugal’s anti-austerity protests (2010–2014), this paper proposes that we should also analyse how parties engage actively behind the scenes. Through a protest event analysis and interviews, the article proposes that parties are not mere supporters or sponsors, b…
Marginal gentrifiers, networks of mobilization and new contentious collective identities. The struggle for housing in post-austerity Lisbon
If literature has stressed the role of marginal gentrifiers in bringing resources to the areas where they move, apart for relevant exceptions, the potentialities and limits of their contribution to urban struggles has not been systematically addressed. This article assesses the role of these newcomers in the defence of the right to housing in post-austerity Lisbon focusing on their interaction with established activist networks. Resorting to a mu…
Profile: Extinction rebellion in the Gambia
The emergence of Extinction Rebellion (XR) in 2018 as a global movement led to the establishment of chapters all around the world. Much existing work has focused on cases located in the UK, Western Europe and the Anglosphere. This profile presents a case study of the formation of XR in The Gambia as an example of further diffusion of the movement. We examine how partial democratisation opened up space for contention, which in turn led to the adop…
Confronting the climate crisis in Africa: Just transitions and Extinction Rebellion in Nigeria and South Africa
Climate change is increasingly impacting the social, economic and political space across the African continent. The compounding character of such impacts reinforces existing inequalities, raising important considerations around climate justice. Growing awareness has seen the emergence of activists working for solutions and promoting alternative futures, working across scales and sectors to address the complexity of the threats. We examine environ…
Visible mathematics pedagogy: A model for transforming classroom practice
This paper focuses on the development of a model of research and professional development which aims to bring about transformations in classroom practice in situations that have previously proved resistant to change. We explore reasons why conventional models have failed to address one such situation, the continuing predominance of teacher-centred pedagogies in mathematics classrooms. We draw on findings from the Visible Mathematics Pedagogy rese…
Spreading rebellion: The rise of extinction rebellion chapters across the world
This article offers an analysis of social movement transnationalisation, using Extinction Rebellion as its case study. In order to investigate the temporal and geographical dynamics of Extinction Rebellion’s transnational diffusion, and the interaction of these dynamics with protest events, we draw on two primary datasets: one describing where and when all 1265 of the movement’s local groups emerged globally, the other containing all major protes…
Contesting Austerity: Social Movements and the Left in Portugal and Spain
Alliance building and eventful protests: Comparing Spanish and Portuguese trajectories under the Great Recession
Social movement research has shed light on the relationship between processes of alliance building and multiple factors related to political opportunities, framing, identities, networks and resource mobilization. However, less is known about the impact of eventful protests on coalition building dynamics. Drawing on a paired comparison between the Portuguese and Spanish cycles of protest under the Great Recession, we aim at accounting for social m…
Twelve years of soil preservation and rehabilitation on the Rio do Peixe watershed: Promoting conservation agriculture
This study aimed to evaluate the works undertaken on the Rio do Peixe watershed by the Coordination of Agricultural Defense (CDA) over 12 years, where conservationist agriculture practices have been used since 2007 to promote the recovery of degraded areas, the reduction of erosion and the improvement of water quality. In addition, we evaluated the performance of innovative diagnostic strategies used to identify erosion spots in the river basin. …
The use of religion by populist parties: The case of Italy and its broader implications
The rise of populist parties in Europe and the increasing salience of religion in political discourse are two relevant, sometimes discussed as interrelated, phenomena of recent decades. While most analysis focuses on right-wing populism, this does not exhaust all possible relationships. This study addresses the role of religion in populist parties by focusing on the Italian case and adopting a comparative cross organisational perspective shedding…
Maternal characteristics and the risk of neonatal mortality in Brazil between 2006 and 2016
Neonatal deaths account for more than 60% of infant deaths and are a major concern in Brazil. The reduction of the occurrence of these events appears to be more challenging than post-neonatal deaths, as such a reduction depends more on factors related to the pregnancy and childbirth than sanitary and health conditions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of maternal factors (schooling, marital status, and age) on the risk o…
Social Movements and Democracy in Spain: Review of Democracia, dignidad y movimientos sociales. El surgimiento de la cultura cívica y la irrupción de los «indignados» en la vida pública. Rubén Díez y …
Over the last decade, Spain became one of the global hotspots for social movement contestation. The emergence of the 15M movement, or Indignados, was of significance not only in Spain, where it gave rise to the longest wave of mobilisation since the transition to the democracy but also internationally as its practices, repertoires and discourses became the blueprint for Occupy movements around the world. In Spain, the Indignados movement unleashe…
Internet, children and space: Revisiting generational attributes and boundaries
At the dawn of modernity, in the 18th century, space became a critical category in defining generational attributes and locations. However, borders that previously tightly isolated adults and children are nowadays continuously challenged and modified by a constant and ubiquitous use of new information and communication technologies, namely the Internet, blurring notions of ‘private’ and ‘public’, ‘outdoors’ and ‘indoors’, ‘real’ and ‘virtual’. Gi…
Great ape genetic diversity and population history
High-coverage sequencing of 79 (wild and captive) individuals representing all six non-human great ape species has identified over 88 million single nucleotide polymorphisms providing insight into ape genetic variation and evolutionary history and enabling comparison with human genetic diversity. In an effort to provide insights into great ape genetic variation, the authors sequence 79 wild- and captive-born individuals from across all six great …
Children and digital diversity: From 'unguided rookies' to 'self-reliant cybernauts
This article discusses the heterogeneity in children's appropriation and use of the internet that make up contemporary digital divides. Based on a survey of Portuguese children in mandatory education (8- to 17-year-olds), it relies on multivariate statistical procedures to build a topological mapping of internet use patterns. Variations in digital practices and parental mediation are analysed in relation to social backgrounds and demographic trai…
