CALL FOR PAPERSBetween Resilience and Resistance: Grassroots (Economic) Activism in Times of Crisis Guest Editors: Giacomo D’Alisa,  ICTA -UAB, Francesca Forno and Simone Maurano, University of Bergamohttp://siba-ese.unisalento.it/index.php/paco/announcement/view/22Looking at the history of social movements, we may identify periods during which these actors have prevalently opposed the dominant power structure di-rectly by using protest actions (i.e. conflicting and resisting the dominant socioeconomic structure), and periods in which movements have prevalently proposed and sustained forms of self-help and self-production – mutualism, economic co-operativism – i.e. developing their resilience through commoning.Like in the past, the mobilizing capacity of social movements to this day is conditioned by the environment within which these actors operate. The degree of openness/closedness of political, economic and cultural opportunities not only affects the action strategies adopted by these collective actors, but also their organizational structure.Submission procedure- long abstracts (about 1,000 words): 30 April 2014- Selection of long abstracts: 31 May 2014- Submission of selected paper: 31 October 2014- Provision of peer review feedback: 31 January 2015- Submission of revised drafts: 31 March 2015Please refer to the editorial guidelines available at http://siba-ese.unisalento.it/index.php/paco/about/submissions#onlineSubmissionsPlease address any queries to: francesca.forno@unibg.it
