This title was first published in 2000: The author examines those
current theories which purport to explain the emergence and
character of 'new' social movements in the 'advanced' industrial
societies since the 1960s. In particular, it sets out to test the
efficacy of these explanations in relation to the history of the
environmental movement in Britain. The book breaks new ground in
bringing together both short-term and the more historically
orientated long-term explanations into a single volume, thus
providing an invaluable resource for students of social movements.
Its critical exposition of major theories also points to the need
for a more developmental approach which seeks to connect old and
new movement forms, thus allowing for a more balanced evaluation of
the potential of the environmental movement to bring about
significant social change.
