Edited by Britta Baumgarten, Priska Daphi, Peter UllrichCulture has become a prominent concept in social movement research. It is, however, often employed in an unsystematic and limited way. This volume introduces and compares different concepts of culture in social movement research. It assesses advantages and shortcomings of existing concepts and introduces new approaches. In particular, it addresses facets of cultural theory that have hitherto been largely neglected in the literature on social movements. This includes ideas from anthropology, discourse analysis, sociology of emotions, narration, spatial theory, and others. The chapters in this volume address three relationships between social movements and culture: culture as a framework for movements, social movements' internal culture, and culture and cultural change as a result of social movement activity. For the purpose of making concepts easily accessible, each contribution explains its approach to culture in an understandable way and illustrates it with recent cases of mobilization.9781137385789  http://www.palgrave.com/page/detail/conceptualizing-culture-in-social-movement-research-britta-baumgarten/?K=9781137385789large parts online for free: http://books.google.de/books?id=5HCoBAAAQBAJ&#38;printsec=frontcover&#38;dq=conceptualizing+culture+in+social+movement+research&#38;hl=en&#38;sa=X&#38;ei=ofQ0VLCmH-a8ygPmmIDgCw&#38;redir_esc=y#v=onepage&#38;q=conceptualizing%20culture%20in%20social%20movement%20research&#38;f=falseDiscount flyer: Flyer Conceptualizing Culture in Social Movement ResearchTable of Contents1.
