European social movements have become increasingly visible in
recent years, generating intense public debates. From
anti-austerity and pro-democracy movements to right-wing
nationalist movements, these movements expose core conflicts around
European democracy, identity, politics and society. The Routledge
Handbook of Contemporary European Social Movements offers a
comprehensive interdisciplinary overview of the analysis of
European social movements, helping to orient scholars and students
navigating a rapidly evolving field while developing a new agenda
for research in the area. The book is divided into eight sections:
Visions of Europe; Contemporary models of democracy; Historical
evolution of major European movements; Feminism and sexualities;
Movement diffusion within and beyond Europe; Anti-austerity
movements; Technopolitical and media movements; and Movements,
parties and movement-parties. Key theories and empirical
trajectories of core movements, their central issues, debates and
impacts are covered, with a focus on how these have influenced and
been influenced by their European context. Democracy, and how
social movements understand it, renew it, or undermine it, forms a
core thread that runs through the book. Written in a clear and
direct style, the Handbook provides a key resource for students and
scholars hoping to understand the key debates and innovations
unfolding in the heart of European social movements and how these
affect broader debates on such areas as democracy, human rights,
the right to the city, feminism, neoliberalism, nationalism,
migration and European values, identity and politics. Extensive
references and sources will direct readers to areas of further
study.
