"Della Porta has assembled a distinguished group of scholars who have made great strides in illuminating the early phases of the movement.

Corrupt Exchanges: Actors, Resources, and Mechanisms of Political Corruption
ISBN: 9780202306001 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 329 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Political corruption has traditionally been presented as a phenomenon characteristic of developing countries, authoritarian regimes, or societies in which the value system favored tacit patrimony and clientelism. Recently, however, the thesis of an inverse correlation between corruption and economic and political development (and therefore democratic "maturity") has been frequently and convincingly challenged. Countries with a long democratic tradition, such as the United States, Belgium, Britain, and Italy, have all experienced a combination of headline-grabbing scandals and smaller-scale...

Methodological Practices in Social Movement Research
ISBN: 9780198719588 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Social movement studies have grown enormously in the last few decades, spreading from sociology and political science to other fields of knowledge, as varied as geography, history, anthropology, psychology, economics, law and others. With the growing interest in the field, there has been also an increasing need for methodological guidance for empirical research. This volume addresses this need by introducing the main methods of data collection and data analysis as they have been used in past research on social movements.

Social Movements, Political Violence, and the State: A Comparative Analysis of Italy and Germany
ISBN: 9780521473965 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book presents empirical research on the nature and structure of political violence. While most studies of social movements focus on single-nation studies, Donatella della Porta uses a comparative research design to analyze movements in two countries--Italy and Germany--from the 1960s to the 1990s. Through extensive use of official documents and in-depth interviews, della Porta is able to explain the actors' construction of external political reality, and to build a theory on political violence that synthesizes the various interactions among political actors.

ISBN: 9780745688596 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Recent years have seen an enormous increase in protests across the world in which citizens have challenged what they see as a deterioration of democratic institutions and the very civil, political and social rights that form the basis of democratic life. Beginning with Iceland in 2008, and then forcefully in Egypt, Tunisia, Spain, Greece and Portugal, or more recently in Peru, Brazil, Russia, Bulgaria, Turkey and Ukraine, people have taken to the streets against what they perceive as a rampant and dangerous corruption of democracy, with a distinct focus on inequality and suffering.

Voices of the Valley, Voices of the Straits: How Protest Creates Communities
ISBN: 9781845455156 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Protest campaigns against large-scale public works usually take place within a local context. However, since the 1990s new forms of protest have been emerging. This book analyses two cases from Italy that illustrate this development: the environmentalist protest campaigns against the TAV (the building of a new high-speed railway in Val de Susa, close to the border with France), and the construction of the Bridge on the Messina Straits (between Calabria and Sicily). Such mobilizations emerge from local conflicts but develop as part of a global justice movement, often resulting in the...

Mobilizing for Democracy: Comparing 1989 and 2011
ISBN: 9780199689323 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Strangely enough, while the pictures used to illustrate the most recent wave of protests for democracy in North Africa represent mass protest, research on social movements and democratization have rarely interacted. This volume aims to fill this gap by looking at episodes of democratization through the lens of social movement studies. Without assuming that democratization is always produced from below, the author singles out different paths of democratization by looking at the ways in which the masses interact with the elites, and protest with bargaining: eventful democratization,...

Mobilizing on the Extreme Right: Germany, Italy, and the United States
ISBN: 9780199641260 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Research on the extreme right is rare, and the extreme right has rarely been analysed as a social movement. In this volume, the extreme right is compared in Italy, Germany, and the United States using concepts and methods developed in social movement studies. In particular, the book describes the discourse, action, and organizational structures of the extreme right, and explains these on the basis of the discursive and political opportunities available to the social movement as a whole. Three main empirical methods are used in the research. The frame analysis looks at the cognitive mechanisms...
