Opis

Legacies and Memories in Movements addresses the long term effects of democratic transitions on social movements in Italy, Greece, Portugal and Spain. Donatella della Porta and her collaborators examine the concepts of historical legacy and memory, suggesting ways to apply them in analyses of the long-term effects of movements, movement participation, and movement strategies and tactics.

Recenzje

This book provides important insights for scholars in sociology and political science. A thorough examination of how meanings emerge through historical pathways shows how studying history and memory can assuage the present-oriented bias of current sociological scholarship.
