Social movements play a significant role in the political and
social landscape of Latin America. They emanate from different
sections of society and are motivated by many different concerns,
including workers' rights, agrarian and land reform, the rights of
indigenous peoples, gender inequality and the fight against
environmental degradation. Ronaldo Munck explores the mosaic of
interlocking and connected issues that make up the complex map of
social movements in Latin America and shows why, despite being a
fragmented political force, these movements are at the centre of
any future progressive politics in the region. As such they require
careful understanding and, he suggests, a more nuanced theoretical
approach than previous studies have offered. Combining insights
from Latin American approaches to social movement theory and
detailed empirical case studies, the book provides readers with an
understanding of the vital role social activism plays in the region
and offers students the methodological tools to develop their own
research agendas.
