This book presents an overview of new approaches to the study of
social movements emerging out of Latin America, based on original
and innovative analyses of the recent changes in collective action
across the region. Over the past decade, new repertoires of
contention have emerged in parallel to changes in the configuration
of actors, in previously established patterns of relationship
between social movements and political institutions, and in the
shapes of collaborative networks, both domestic and transnational.
The authors analyze a broad set of countries and social movements,
while focusing on three key theoretical debates: the interactions
between routine and contentious politics, the relationship between
protest and context, and the organizational configurations of
social movements. The research agenda put forward by this book is
neither defined nor restricted by geographical boundaries, even
though the chapters are based on field research undertaken in Latin
America. In doing so, this volume contributes to a still
underdeveloped dialogue in theory-building in social movement
studies, among scholars from the South and from the North, as well
as among scholars specialized in different regions.
