Social movements in the United States are important political
actors because of their scale and duration, their generation of new
ideas and understandings of existing problems, their ability to
mobilize those who were previously passive citizens, and the
impetus they provide for restructuring and broadening the agenda of
American politics. This volume combines chapters by a distinguished
group of social movement scholars, from both sociology and
political science, who use perspectives ranging from political
process theory to rational choice and collective action approaches
to evaluate the functioning of institutions of American government
and the public policies that they produce. A diverse group of
movements and interests are featured: women, public interest,
native America, the environment, the Christian Right, abortion, gay
rights, and homelessness among them.
