THEORIES OF SOCIAL MOVEMENTS AND THEIR CURRENT DEVELOPMENT IN SOVIET SOCIETY Sergey Mamay Part 1. Theories of social movements Theories of social movements are closely connected with the general problems of society's development. To analyse social movements separately, in abstraction from the social structure, is to limit the problem by superficial analysis, which is not fruitful and does not allow us to understand the nature of social movements. For that reason all the serious theories of social movements are based on general approaches to the principles of society's development. The question of classification of the theories of social movements is complicated, as there are many points of view on this question. We consider that four main approaches can be distinguished and that these four approaches are: 1. `collective behaviour' theory, 2. `resource mobilisation' theory, 3. `new social movements' interpretations, 4. `the action-identity' approach. Let us first consider briefly the characteristic of these four approaches. `Collective behaviour' accounts are still recognised as an orthodoxy in studies of social movements. Among the followers of this approach we can name such Chicago school sociologists as Ralph Turner and Lewis Killian; Talcott Parsons and his structural functionalism, and Neil Smelser in whose

The idea is to provide intellectual resources for social movements - such as the anti-globalisation movement, ecology, community development, feminism or alternative media - through participatory research geared to movement needs, as well as giving activists an opportunity for personal development which is supportive of their activism. The general area of research is social movement practice - what we do as activists, and how we could do it better. What is it? For the last seven years I've been developing a small-scale postgraduate research programme (MA / MLitt or PhD) along these lines, from 1996 to 2000 at the Centre for Research on Environment and Community (CREC) in Waterford Institute of Technology , and now in the

Electronic citizenship and global social movements by Liza Tsaliki This paper is an attempt at a more systematic study of the impact of new social movements on participatory politics and citizenship at a European level. It presents the empirical findings from my work on ecological NGOs and addresses the following questions: In what ways is the Internet conducive to discursive democracy when used by grassroots organizations, and more specifically by environmental groups in Finland, the Netherlands, Spain, Britain and Greece? What kind of information is offered on the Web sites of some environmental organizations in the five countries? How is this related with the level of Internet development in these countries? It concludes that ecological organizations use the Internet for publicity purposes and for diffusion of information mainly, while the dimensions of discursive, interactive communication and the establishment of 'nexuses of global action' are still underplayed. Contents Introduction Why environment? Global forces and environmentalism NCTs in a national context: A bird's eye view of the level of Interent development in the countries under examination ... Conclusions Introduction The paper presents the empirical findings from my work on ecological NGOs. It will start by giving the reasons for the choice of the category Environment amongst new social movements. This will be followed by a discussion of the relationship between environmentalism and globalization. It will continue by offering a brief account of the level of Internet development in the countries under examination before it embarks on the website analysis of various environmental organizations in Finland, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Spain and Greece. It will conclude with some thoughts about the web presence of the NGOs under inspection.

Return to the SPCH 461 Home Page America in the 1960s The most active period of social movement rhetoric in the 20th century was the 1960s. This period roughly begins with a build-up from the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka Supreme Court Decision of 1954. This desegregation decision began the Civil Rights movement. By 1960, multiple movements are gathering steam in the United States. After 1970 and the Kent State killings, social movements began to decline and by the fall of Saigon that ended the Vietnam War in 1975 the most active period was over. Of course, movements continue to our day just as there have always been some active reform movements in America. But the most active period was over. Conditions Given Voice in 60s Movements The rhetoric of the 60s movements had several conditions of the society that it attempted to convert into power for the movement.
