Abstract

This special issue of Studies features what we believe is a stimulating mix of estab- lished scholars and newer voices. It features genuine diversity in terms of the range of social movement represented, the theoretical resources and interests which are drawn on, the research approaches and methods that have been utilised and the geographi- cal scope of movements, their constituencies, and the aims they seek to achieve.
