Party Responses to Social Movements: Challenges and Opportunities by Daniela R.

Description: Party Responses to Social Movements by Daniela R. Piccio Focusing on Italy and the Netherlands since the 1970s, Party Responses to Social Movements demonstrates how political parties have incorporated the demands of social movements to a surprising extent, even as both have grappled with fundamental and inevitable tension between their respective roles and aims. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Across the West, the explosion of social movement activity since the late 1960s has constituted a "participatory revolution" that has posed profound challenges for formal political parties. Through an analysis of new interviews, institutional documents, and a host of other largely unexploited sources, Daniela R. Piccio provides a rich and empirically grounded exploration of the wide-ranging responses to these movements. Focusing on Italy and the Netherlands since the 1970s, Party Responses to Social Movements demonstrates how political parties have incorporated the demands of movements to a surprising extent, even as both have grappled with fundamental and inevitable tensions between their respective roles and aims.

It is clearly written, very well-organized, and is designed in a way that generates stimulating and suggestive comparisons." • John Markoff, University of Pittsburgh"A pleasant and interesting read with a well-thought out design.
