Protest, Social Movements, and Global Democracy since 2011 - New Perspectives (Hardcover): Thomas Davies, Holly Eva Ryan,... Protest, Social Movements, and Global Democracy since 2011 - New Perspectives (Hardcover)
Thomas Davies, Holly Eva Ryan, Alejandro Milciades Pena
R3,368 Discovery Miles 33 680 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In light of the limited achievements of the Arab Spring and other pro-democracy movements, volume 39 examines and unpacks arguments that these protests represent both a new phase and new prospects for democratic mobilization. The volume engages with new theoretical and methodological perspectives and illuminates novel aspects of transnational social movement dynamics, such as the evolving role of information technology, deterritorialisation and government counter-responses.

Political Street Art - Communication, culture and resistance in Latin America (Paperback): Holly Eva Ryan Political Street Art - Communication, culture and resistance in Latin America (Paperback)
Holly Eva Ryan
R1,328 Discovery Miles 13 280 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Recent global events, including the 'Arab Spring' uprisings, Occupy movements and anti-austerity protests across Europe have renewed scholarly and public interest in collective action, protest strategies and activist subcultures. We know that social movements do not just contest and politicise culture, they create it too. However, scholars working within international politics and social movement studies have been relatively inattentive to the manifold political mediations of graffiti, muralism, street performance and other street art forms. Against this backdrop, this book explores the evolving political role of street art in Latin America during the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. It examines the use, appropriation and reconfiguration of public spaces and political opportunities through street art forms, drawing on empirical work undertaken in Brazil, Bolivia and Argentina. Bringing together a range of insights from social movement studies, aesthetics and anthropology, the book highlights some of the difficulties in theorising and understanding the complex interplay between art and political practice. It seeks to explore 'what art can do' in protest, and in so doing, aims to provide a useful point of reference for students and scholars interested in political communication, culture and resistance. It will be of interest to students and scholars working in politics, international relations, political and cultural geography, Latin American studies, art, sociology and anthropology.
