This volume takes a global view of the emergence of public protest
movements over the last decade, asking whether such movements
contribute to the globalization of civil society. Through a variety
of studies, organised around the themes of public agency, public
norms, public memory and public art, it considers the tendency of
political contestations to move beyond national boundaries and
create transnational connections. Departing from the approaches of
social movements perspectives, it focuses on public space as a site
of social "mixity" and opens up a new field for the study of
politics and cultural controversies. An analysis of the
paradigmatic change in the way in which society is made and
politics is conducted, this study of the new enactment of
citizenship in public space will appeal to scholars of sociology,
anthropology, geography and politics with interests in protest
movements and contentious politics, citizenship and the public
sphere, and globalization.
