This latest volume in the august Research in Social Movements,
Conflicts and Change series carries on a long tradition of
featuring only the best data-driven and multi-method research upon
which useful theory can be painstakingly built. Part one focuses on
old and new media platforms and their intersections with
mobilization issues, highlighting protest websites and the US Tea
Party movement. Part two investigates the roles elites play in
advancing movement campaigns for increased rights and decreased
inequalities in the US and Peru. The third section spotlights best
and worst practices in conflict transformation and peacebuilding
ventures in Croatia and Israel/Palestine, while the fourth section
interrogates the use of consensus building processes in Local
Social Forums and in the Occupy Movement. Finally, on the 50th
anniversary of the publication of Neil Smelser's A Theory of
Collective Behavior, we close with a creative combining of
Smelser's structural functionalist approach with social identity
models for understanding crowd behaviors in the context of
university party riots.
