Globalised neo-liberalism has produced multiple crises - social,
ecological, political. In the past, crises of global order have
generated large-scale social transformations, and the current
crises likewise hold a transformative promise. Social movements
become a crucial barometer, in signalling both the demise and rise
of political formations and programs. Elite strategies, framed as
crisis management, create their own disordering side-effects.
Experiments in movement strategy gain greater significance, as do
contending elite efforts at repressing, managing or displacing the
fall-out. In this book we investigate both movements and management
in the face of crisis, taking crisis and unanticipated consequences
as a normal state-of-play. The book enquires into the winners and
losers from crisis, and investigates the movement-management nexus
as it unfolds in particular localities as well as in broader
contexts. The book deals with some of the most pressing conflicts
of our time, and produces a range of theoretical insights: the
ubiquity of crisis is seen as not only a hallmark of social life,
but a way into a different kind of social analysis. This book was
published as a special issue of Globalizations.
