- Protest and Social Movements in the Developing World, Hardcover by Shigetomi, Shinichi (EDT); Makino, Kumiko (EDT), ISBN 1848443625, ISBN-13 9781848443624, Brand New, Free shipping in the US
The editors (both of the Institute of Developing Economies, Japan External Trade Organization, Japan) present eight case studies exploring the causal factors behind social movements in developing countries. Theoretically, the case studies build on modern social movement theory, but seek to pay greater attention to contextual and institutional factors that have been neglected by the standard subjectivist and purposive approach that stresses factors such as resource mobilization, political opportunity recognition, collective identity formation, and framing. Topics include resource and institutional endowment for mobilization for peace activists in Colombia and provincial development forums in Thailand; structures behind political opportunities for the environmental movement in China, AIDS activism in post-apartheid South Africa, and the unemployed and poor people's movement in Argentina; and framing and historical reality for Mexican indigenous people's movements, the women's movement in India, and opposition movements and youth in Nigeria's oil-producing regions.
