Researching Resistance and Social Change: A Critical Approach to Theory and Practice

Resistance has often been connected with anti-social attitudes, destructiveness, reactionary or revolutionary ideologies, unusual and sudden explosions of violence and emotional outbursts. This book goes beyond these conventions. Exploring various key questions, ranging from concept definitions of affect and temporality, to complex entanglements of various social dimensions and ethical questions, this accessible guide provides a robust theoretical and methodological framework for researching of resistance and social change. By drawing connections between resistance and politics, between performance and everyday strategies, and between the juridical and its counter-strategies, this book provides students with a transdisciplinary understanding of contemporary debates in this emerging field.Researching Resistance and Social Change: A Critical Approach to Theory and Practice 1st Edition is written by Mikael Baaz; Mona Lilja; Stellan Vinthagen and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers.
