Since the re-democratization of much of Latin America in the 1980s
and a regional wave of anti-austerity protests in the 1990s, social
movement studies has become an important part of sociological,
political, and anthropological scholarship on the region. The
subdiscipline has framed debates about formal and informal
politics, spatial and relational processes, as well as economic
changes in Latin America. While there is an abundant literature on
particular movements in different countries across the region,
there is limited coverage of the approaches, debates, and
theoretical understandings of social movement studies applied to
Latin America. In The Oxford Handbook of Latin American Social
Movements, Federico M. Rossi presents a survey of the broad range
of theoretical perspectives on social movements in Latin America.
Bringing together a wide variety of viewpoints, the Handbook
includes five sections: theoretical approaches to social movements,
as applied to Latin America; processes and dynamics of social
movements; major social movements in the region; ideational and
strategic dimensions of social movements; and the relationship
between political institutions and social movements. Covering key
social movements and social dynamics in Latin America from the late
nineteenth century to the twenty-first century, The Oxford Handbook
of Latin American Social Movements is an indispensable reference
for any scholar interested in social movements, protest,
contentious politics, and Latin American studies.
