Subject: CFP - Proposta di panel per ECPR Graduate Conference: Linking
collective identity and agency: Social movements, organizations and
strategic choices.
To: sgmovimentipartecipazione@???, movimenti.bicocca@???
Cari,
insieme al mio collega e amico Markos Vogiatzoglou stiamo preparando
una proposta di panel per la Sezione 16: Political Sociology della 4th
ECPR Graduate Conference, che si terrà alla Jacobs University di Brema
dal 4 al 6 luglio 2012.
La call è quindi rivolta ai dottorandi, e privilegia le proposte di
panel completi, che dovrebbero consistere di un panel abstract e 5-6
paper abstract rilevanti per i temi del panel.
Ecco la nostra proposta:
***
Linking collective identity and agency: Social movements,
organizations and strategic choices.
The general CfP for section 16 is asking for papers on social
movements, advocacy coalitions, contentious politics, the social roots
of political parties , etc..
Our panel proposal will investigate the issue of strategic choices
made by Social Movements and Social Movement Organizations. We shall
focus on two broad categories of determinants,
a) Time, memory and learning in movements
b) Strategy as an intertwinement of Agency and Structure.
More specifically, with regard to category (a), we are looking for
papers addressing:
Processes of evolution and learning in a cycle of protest
The spillover effect and the legacies of mobilisations
Mnemonic constructions and their use by social movements and SMOs
Path-dependency in repertoire and organizational choices
With regard to category (b):
Organizational aspects: Social movements as organizational/strategic
action fields
Movements' decision-making when dealing with strong structural
constraints (i.e. under repressive/authoritarian regimes).
Repertoires of actions: violence/nonviolence as a strategic choice
Cultural and institutional contexts' influence on movements' strategy
And in the crossroads between the two:
The influence of movement tradition: its diffusion in the national and
cross-national level
Events and eventful protests as movements' strategy determinants.
***
Come ho scritto sopra, la proposta di panel dovrebbe includere 5-6
paper abstract (circa 300 parole), che intendiamo selezionare sulla
base di criteri pluralistici in termini teorici e metodologici. Siamo
interessati soprattutto a paper basati su una ricerca empirica, ma
considereremo in ogni caso anche innovativi approcci teorici.
Per completare la nostra proposta e poter fare una selezione corretta
e rigorosa, vi chiediamo di mandarci i vostri paper abstract entro il
31 dicembre.
Chi fosse interessato a partecipare può scrivere a
lorenzo.zamponi@??? o markos.vogiatzoglou@???.
Ciao,
Lorenzo Zamponi
