Book Synopsis Repertoires and Cycles of Collective Action by : Mark Traugott
Download or read book Repertoires and Cycles of Collective Action written by Mark Traugott and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern era has generated a bewildering profusion of popular protest including widespread social movements and sporadic revolutionary upheaval. Despite the seemingly chaotic character of such collective action, social scientists have increasingly noted the remarkable regularities exhibited by even the most tumultuous social change. In this volume, sociologists, political scientists, and historians come together to assess the complementary concepts of repertoires and cycles as tools for illuminating the consistent patterns that emerge from the apparent chaos. The significance of repertoires--recurrent forms or tactics of social protest-- is explored in an essay on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Britain by the originator of the concept, Charles Tilly. Sidney Tarrow, whose work has most directly linked the concept of repertoires with that of cycles--the recurrent peaks and troughs in the historical incidence of collective action--contributes an essay that focuses on twentieth-century Italy. Other essays investigate the rhythms and logic of social change in contexts as diverse as sixteenth- through nineteenth-century Japan, nineteeth-century Europe, and twentieth-century America. Through inquiries into the consequences of violent repression for social mobilization, the struggle to control the linguistic terms of social conflict, the unacknowledged antecedents of contemporary movements, and the importance of "movement families," this volume demonstrates the usefulness of these two concepts and defines the relationship between them. Collected from past issues of Social Science History, with a new introduction and two new essays, Repertoires and Cycles of Collective Action will reward an interdisciplinary audience of readers with the extraordinary vitality that emerges from this rich blend of historical perspectives.

Book Synopsis Cultural Repertoires by : G. J. Dorleijn
Download or read book Cultural Repertoires written by G. J. Dorleijn and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is apparent that every linguistic and literary tradition will wish to distinguish broad periods in its historical evolution. One way of demarcating such periods is by isolating and identifying dominant repertoires of texts, styles or types, which may be seen as preserving repositories of material, promoting literary models, privileging formal constraints, or inspiring theoretical reflections - or all of these. The present collection of studies represents the results of a colloquium held at the University of Groningen in 2001. The contributions range widely in area, time, and theme: from general theory of acceptation into the canon to particular case studies; from overall descriptions of cultural repertoires to their very manufacture; from Ancient Mesopotamia to the European avant-garde - taking in Homeric Greece, the Arabic world, the Middle Ages, Renaissance Humanism, and modern Dutch literature along the way.

Book Synopsis Regimes and Repertoires by : Charles Tilly
Download or read book Regimes and Repertoires written by Charles Tilly and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-02-15 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The means by which people protest—that is, their repertoires of contention—vary radically from one political regime to the next. Highly capable undemocratic regimes such as China's show no visible signs of popular social movements, yet produce many citizen protests against arbitrary, predatory government. Less effective and undemocratic governments like the Sudan’s, meanwhile, often experience regional insurgencies and even civil wars. In Regimes and Repertoires, Charles Tilly offers a fascinating and wide-ranging case-by-case study of various types of government and the equally various styles of protests they foster. Using examples drawn from many areas—G8 summit and anti-globalization protests, Hindu activism in 1980s India, nineteenth-century English Chartists organizing on behalf of workers' rights, the revolutions of 1848, and civil wars in Angola, Chechnya, and Kosovo—Tilly masterfully shows that such episodes of contentious politics unfold like loosely scripted theater. Along the way, Tilly also brings forth powerful tools to sort out the reasons why certain political regimes vary and change, how the people living under them make claims on their government, and what connections can be drawn between regime change and the character of contentious politics.

Download or read book Global Repertoires written by Andreas Gebesmair and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With just four record companies controlling nearly 80 per cent of the world market in popular music, issues of globalization are evidently significant to our understanding of how and why popular music is made and distributed. As transnational industries seek to open up increasingly larger markets, the question of how local and regional music cultures can be sustained is a pressing one. To what extent does the global music market offer opportunities for the worldwide dissemination of local music within and beyond the major industry? The essays in this volume examine the structure and strategies of the transnational music industry, with its deployment of mass communication technologies including sound carriers, satellite broadcasting and the Internet. The book also explores local and individual experience of global music and this music's dissemination through migration and communities of interest, as well as the ideological and political use of different kinds of music. In contrast to recent arguments which posit an American imperialist dominance of popular music, the contributors to this volume find that the global repertoire of the major labels no longer represents the culture of a certain country but is fed by different sources. The essays here discuss how we can characterize this vast de-centered industry, and offer perspectives on the so-called 'international repertoire' that calls for a melodic structure, ballad forms, unaccented vocalisation and an image that has global recognition.

Book Synopsis Liberal Lives and Activist Repertoires by : Tracy C. Davis
Download or read book Liberal Lives and Activist Repertoires written by Tracy C. Davis and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ambitious study traces the strategies of human rights activists to show how world-changing reform movements were shaped by women and men from modest backgrounds who were deeply attuned to the power of performance. Tracy C. Davis explores nineteenth-century reform campaigns through the pioneering work of a family of activists – prominent anti-slavery lecturer George Thompson, his daughter Amelia (the first female theatre and music critic for a British daily newspaper) and her husband, the political organizer Frederick Chesson. Engaging in some of the most important social struggles of the late Georgian and Victorian periods – including abolition, enfranchisement, and anti-genocide - this book reveals how two generations' insights into performance consolidated into activist tactics that persist today. Characterised by a skilful deployment of performance theory alongside deep and wide-ranging historical knowledge, this ground-breaking work demonstrates what 'dramaturgy' can teach us about 'history'.
Book Synopsis Italo-Romance Dialects in the Linguistic Repertoires of Immigrants in Italy by : Francesco Goglia
Download or read book Italo-Romance Dialects in the Linguistic Repertoires of Immigrants in Italy written by Francesco Goglia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book brings together experts on the sociolinguistics of immigration with a focus on the Italo-Romance dialects. Sociolinguistic research on immigrant communities in Italy has widely studied the acquisition and use of Italian as L2 by first-generation immigrants, the maintenance of immigrant languages and code-switching between Italian and the immigrant languages. However, these studies have mostly ignored or neglected to investigate immigrant speakers’ use of Italo-Romance dialects, their awareness of the sociolinguistic situation of majority and minority languages, and their attitudes towards them. Given the important role of Italo-Romance dialects in everyday communication and as a marker of regional identity, this book aims to fill this gap and understand more about the role that these languages play in the linguistic repertoire of immigrants. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of sociolinguistics, minority languages, multilingualism, migration, and social anthropology.
Book Synopsis Developing Translanguaging Repertoires in Critical Teacher Education by : Zhongfeng Tian
Download or read book Developing Translanguaging Repertoires in Critical Teacher Education written by Zhongfeng Tian and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Critical Approaches in Applied Linguistics book series focuses on methods of inquiry, approaches, theories, concepts, and topics in applied linguistics that are critical in nature - that is, geared toward interrogating the relationship between language and the (re)creation of present and possible worlds. The field of applied linguistics has traditionally focused on 'real world issues'. In recent years, there has been a socially-oriented turn that considers issues including language policy, language assessment, language acquisition, discourse, and other topics from a critical perspective. This critical approach not only describes social issues but recognizes societal inequities and seeks to intentionally address them. The series has a social change and social justice orientation to allow editors, authors, and readers to engage in critical dialogue about relevant topics from an applied linguistics perspective. The books in the series take interdisciplinary approaches to focus on key topics (e.g., language and education; language, race, and racism; heritage language socialization; heritage and indigenous language education) using a range of methodological approaches (e.g., critical discourse analysis, participatory action research, narrative inquiry, ethnographies, case studies). This book series provides a distinctive forum for scholars and practitioners to engage with these approaches and topics to move towards social action around the world. Early career scholars are especially encouraged to submit proposals to the series. To discuss your book idea or submit a proposal, please contact Natalie Fecher.

Book Synopsis Translanguaging in EFL Contexts by : Michael Rabbidge
Download or read book Translanguaging in EFL Contexts written by Michael Rabbidge and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to promote the value of translanguaging in EFL teaching contexts. To date, translanguaging has been discussed mostly in regards to US and European contexts. This book will examine the teaching beliefs and practices of teachers within a South Korean elementary school context to evaluate the practices of current teachers who use translanguaging strategies when teaching. This examination utilizes sociological theories of pedagogic discourse to discuss the consequences of language exclusion policies on the peninsula. Using these theories, it presents an argument for why EFL contexts like South Korea need to reevaluate their current policies and understandings of language learning and teaching. By embracing translanguaging as an approach, the author argues, they will transform their traditional notions of language learning and teaching in order to view teachers as bilinguals, and learners as emerging bilinguals, rather than use terms of deficiency that have traditionally been in place for such contexts. This book's unique use of sociological theories of pedagogic discourse supports a need to promote the translanguaging ideology of language teaching and learning.
