Workshop
Social Movements Research Network
Organized by
University of Trento, Department of Sociology and Social Research
Trento, Italy, 10-11 October 2008
Presentation
The workshop aims at bringing together scholars for a discussion on recent developments in social
movement theory and research, continuing the discussion the RN had in Glasgow last September.
In this light the Mid Term workshop represents an important opportunity to advance our understanding of social movement approaches through intensive debate among participants.
We will address topical aspects of on-going reflection on social movements, like the impact of
social movements on public policy, political procedures and political cultures in different contexts,as well as on individual activists. We are also interested in addressing broad questions on the effects of social movements on current conceptions of democracy, the contribution of SMOs to public deliberation and in issues of coalition formation and networking in local and transnational spaces.
