Research Handbook on Law, Movements and Social Change

Edited by Steven A. Boutcher, Corey S. Shdaimah and Michael W. Yarbrough

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The study of law and social movements provides an ideal lens for rethinking fundamental questions about the relationship between law and power. This Research Handbook takes up that challenge, framing a new, more global, dynamic, reflexive, and contextualised phase of social movement studies.
