1 Social Movements Sociology 810 Fall 2010 Kenneth (Andy) Andrews Friday 9:00-11:30 Office: Hamilton 209 Hamilton 151 Phone: Office hours: Th 1-2 and by appt. Purpose of the Course This course examines the field of social movements through major theoretical positions and illustrative studies. Questions concerning the origins, dynamics, and impacts of social movements will be addressed. Early weeks of the semester will focus on major theoretical approaches, debates among them, and research that applies and tests major theories. Particular attention will be devoted to collective behavior, rational actor, resource mobilization, political process, social cultural and relational/network theories. We will also examine major analytic questions concerning social movements including recruitment and participation, strategy, leadership, organization, the state and repression, diffusion, mass media, and outcomes/success. Along the way, we will learn about a broad array of social movements. In addition, we will consider various strategies available for studying social movements including historical and comparative methods, surveys of organizations and individuals, experiments, analyses of events, ethnographic fieldwork, and qualitative interviews. Course Requirements Class meetings will be organized as discussions. I will circulate reading questions for each class session. For class meetings, two students will be responsible for preparing a brief set of comments responding to those questions to get discussion started. Typically, I will take a few minutes at the beginning of class to comment on the week s themes and topics with an eye toward locating our reading in the broader field. Discussion leaders will then have an opportunity to reflect on the readings. These comments might include critical observations about the reading, identification of further questions to pursue, reflections on the applicability of concepts and theories in the reading to other cases, and so forth. Your comments should focus attention on key analytic questions and areas for debate and discussion. Each student will comment on readings for one or possibly two class sessions during the semester. In addition to the class presentation(s) and discussions, the other major requirement is a research proposal. Your proposal will be developed through an initial statement of your research question and empirical case (due Monday, September 13 th ), an initial draft on October 25 th, and a final version due at the end of the semester. If appropriate, this paper should include the findings of preliminary research. The goal for this assignment is a proposal suitable for a master s paper,
2 grant/fellowship application, or dissertation. Over the semester, everyone will have a chance to present on their project and research plans and gain feedback from the class. These presentations will be spread out over the semester. Most likely, we will schedule two for each of our regular class sessions and devote the final 30 minutes of each class to hearing about everyone s projects. Course grades will be based on class participation throughout the semester, presentations, and the research proposal. Reading The following books have been ordered: Doug McAdam Political Process and the Development of Black Insurgency Chicago: University of Chicago Press. Ganz, Marshall Why David Sometimes Wins: Leadership, Organization, and Strategy in the California Farm Worker Movement. NY: Oxford University Press. Soule, Sarah A Contention and Corporate Social Responsibility. New York: Cambridge University Press. Luders, Joseph E The Civil Rights Movement and the Logic of Social Change. New York: Cambridge University Press. All other readings will be available through Blackboard. There are several general overviews of the field that you may find helpful. I would recommend: Suzanne Staggenborg s Social Movements (Oxford, 2010), David Snow and Sarah Soule s A Primer on Social Movements (Norton, 2009), or Mario Diani and Donatella Della Porta s Social Movements: An Introduction (Wiley-Blackwell, 2006). In addition, The Blackwell Companion to Social Movements(edited by David Snow, Sarah Soule and Hanspeter KRiesi) is a collection of essays reviewing many areas of scholarship that would help you identify further scholarship on a topic.

Sept 3 Collective Behavior Collective behavior approaches dominated the field from the early 20 th century through the 1960s.
