From Contention to Democracy addresses a crucial aspect of
contemporary societies: the role of social movements for political
and social change. The volume gathers together essays written by
prominent social theorists who have been asked to reflect on the
relationship between movements and processes of social, political
and cultural change. Three broad types of movement-change nexus are
distinguished and discussed: incorporation, transformation, and
democratization. The chapters in this book all point to the place
of social movements in relation to these three processes of change,
while discussing the history and well-known events of social
movements. Individual occurrences such as the protest of French
students in 1968 or Chilean shantytown dwellers are examined. The
final essay looks ahead, wondering: what is the future of social
movements?
