Recenzii

"...an ideal resource for developing courses in social movements because of its systematic and detailed analysis of theories. It is also a solid foundation for deconstructing social movement perspectives"  —Andreas Hoffbauer and Howard Ramos, Dalhousie University in the Canadian Journal of Sociology 35, 4
