Teaching Laura Miller Social Movements Juliet Schor 519 McGuinn Teaching Pearlman courses 103 in social movements is a pleasure. 140 Students Commonwealth come to the Ave. classes with enthusiasm Brandeis University that is rooted both in their academic interests, Boston and College personal histories. Some are activists Waltham, and MA appreciate 02454 the opportunity to learn about Chestnut past movements Hill, MA and 02467 strategize about their current campaigns. Others are curious about the images juliet.schor@bc.edu of struggle that they see in popular culture. Some want to know more about the history of their family, ethnicity, race or class. Some simply Lisa Peñaloza want to understand the world around them. On Sara a more Steen academic level, social movements courses College are of Business opportunities for wrestling with more abstract Department concepts of Sociology within social theory, concepts Bus 468 around action, structure, communication, and 219 power. Ketchum Hall University The of social Colorado movement literature has grown rapidly University over the of Colorado past twenty years, and developed Boulder, CO even 80309 in the four years since the last edition Boulder, of this collection. CO 80309 Theoretical divisions between new social movement theory and political process steen@colorado.edu approaches are being transcended as scholars use multiple traditions to analyze activist identities, the role of the state, narrative, repertoires Jan Phillips and repression, along with the movements Joel that Stillerman have emerged associated with economic Department globalization, of Social and and ethnic conflict. This is apparent 2166 AuSable when one Hall looks at the recent edited collections Behavioral and Science textbooks on social movements that have Grand been Valley published State University in the past five years, many University of which of Southern anchor social Maine/ movement courses (Bantjes Allendale, 2007; MI della 49401 Porta and Diani 1999, 2006; Lewiston-Auburn Meyer 2007; College Nash 2005; Snow, Soule and Kriesi stillejo@gvsu.edu 2004, 2007; Staggenborg 2008; Tilly 2004; Lewiston, Tilly ME and 04240 Tarrow 2007). Most undergraduate social movements courses Deborah center their Thorne readings around a main text. In addition to the newer ones listed above, the most popular Department texts of assigned Sociology continue and to be Sidney Tarrow s Meghan Ashlin Power Rich in Movement (1998), Doug McAdam s Anthropology Political Process and the Development of Department Black Insurgency, of Sociology 1930-1970 and Criminal (1982/1999), the edited Ohio collection University Comparative Perspectives on Social Justice Movements: Political Opportunities, Mobilizing Athens, Structures, OH 45701 and Cultural Framings (1996) University and of Alberto Delaware Melucci s Challenging Codes (1996). However, in putting together this collection, Newark, DE we 19716 have attempted to find syllabi and exercises that go beyond single textbooks, thus expanding our sense of what might be possible in a social Melanie movements Wallendorf course. We are excited about this collection, and what it suggests about the current Department moment of Marketing social movement scholarship. George Ritzer Syllabi by Staggenborg, Olzak, Schwartz Eller and College Esparza, of Wood, Management Roth, Munson, Tilly and Department Conley offer Sociology different perspectives on the state of University the field. of While Arizona Olzak, Staggenborg and Munson University emphasize of Maryland movement emergence and dynamics, Tucson, Wood AZ considers 85721 the role of political economy, College Park, and MD Tilly 20742 and Conley place movements into the larger context of contentious politics. Over the past few years, social movement research and writing has begun to speak more explicitly about the processes and dynamics that underlie Frederick mobilization, Wherry recruitment, alliance building J. Michael and Ryan communication. Exercises like Caren s Department Social Movement of Sociology Board Game, Bowman s exercise Department on designing of Sociology a social movement, and Conley s University project of on Michigan analyzing a stream of contention University of allow Maryland the students to wrestle with these processes Ann Arbor, in ways MI 48109 that will sharpen both their analysis, College Park, and build MD 20742 their sense of themselves as active participants in society. Inevitably, the collection also reflects the gaps in the field. While Roth highlights the interaction between gender and social movements there is a need for more courses that pay sustained attention to dynamics of gender, race, class, sexuality and disability as they are manifested in movements. Slowly, North American scholars are examining social movements outside of the core countries in Western Europe and North America. While the US civil rights movement continues to hold a central place in our theorizing, it is no longer as dominant as it once was. 200 3

Newer Laura Miller movements including the anti-sweatshop movement, Juliet Schor global justice movements, movements Department around of Sociology health, the environment, immigration 519 McGuinn and security, and movements around racism Pearlman and 103 sexism in social institutions beyond the government 140 Commonwealth are slowly Ave. becoming more Brandeis visible in University our literature. Some of these movements are Boston reflected College as focused case studies in this Waltham, collection MA from 02454 the courses on environmental movements Chestnut by Hill, Leonard MA 02467 and by Brulle, to Brown s course on Social Movements in Health. Social juliet.schor@bc.edu movement courses that examine collective action in times and places different to our own can be an opportunity for Lisa understanding Peñaloza the particularities of the current moment Sara in Steen North America. Such investigations College help students of Business to understand that another world is not Department only possible, of but Sociology inevitable. Courses on Bus social 468 movements in Latin America such as those by 219 Rubin, Ketchum and Schulz, Hall and courses that adopt a University global perspective of Colorado like those by Williams, El-Ghobashy, University Thayer, of and Colorado Almeida offer ways of Boulder, doing this. CO 80309 Social movement courses also offer particular steen@colorado.edu challenges. Often students arrive in the classes feeling disconnected from movements and skeptical about the effectiveness of movement Jan activity. Phillips Some scholars included here have developed Joel tools Stillerman for overcoming this sense of Department disconnection of by Social engaging and students through social movement 2166 AuSable work. Hall The courses by Marshall Behavioral Ganz and by Science Darcy Leach and the exercises by Starr, Grand Bowman, Valley Conley State and University Scanlan ask students University to participate of in Southern social movement Maine/ activity, breaking down Allendale, the boundaries MI 49401 between the sociologist Lewiston-Auburn and the activist/organizer. College When done well, such work stillejo@gvsu.edu can facilitate a deeper understanding of Lewiston, the dynamics ME that 04240 underlie social movement activity, as well as developing skills for engagement in the larger society. Deborah Thorne Social movement courses offer opportunities Department for building of academic Sociology students and abilities that will Meghan be useful Ashlin to Rich them in their other courses, and in their Anthropology research. Some of these courses offer ways Department to simultaneously of Sociology build and substantive Criminal knowledge Ohio while University honing methodological skills. Mertig s Justice Fieldwork exercise and Conley s project on Athens, analyzing OH episodes 45701 of contention bring these University goals of together Delaware explicitly. Scanlan s exercises on analyzing news coverage of protest and Newark, films about DE social 19716 movements also offer creative methodological exercises. Sissenich s course on Social Movement and Film suggests ways that we might Melanie be able Wallendorf to incorporate film into our teaching and understand more deeply the ways that popular Department culture, of Marketing movements and political processes George Ritzer more generally interact. Eller College of Management Department Teaching of Sociology social movements is also a way to encourage University students of Arizona to confront questions of University power and inequality. of Maryland Some students, especially early Tucson, in their AZ university 85721 education are reluctant College to critically Park, analyze MD 20742 the hegemonic ideas of progress and development. Many of the courses included here explicitly examine the ways that less powerful groups force authorities into concessions. Applying theories of success and mobilization Frederick to particular Wherry cases can offer students J. a sense Michael of how Ryan change becomes possible. One example Department of this is offered Sociology by Colleen Murphy, Department who in her final of Sociology exam, asks the students to use their knowledge University of Michigan social movements to predict the University success of Maryland the movement around gay marriage. College So, Park, here MD it is. 20742 This collection offers some of the best ideas from today s social movement courses in the US and beyond we hope that it will inspire and challenge both you and your students.

They should present issues in the literature and end with questions Melanie for Wallendorf class discussion. Department of Marketing George Ritzer Eller College of Management One 15-20 page paper will be required, and students will be asked to turn in a draft/outline/or University of Arizona whatever they have at the midway point of the seminar. The paper topic should be chosen in Tucson, AZ 85721 consultation with me, and should ideally both focus more intently on one course theme and target a student s research interests. That is to say, I will work with students so that they write more in depth on a topic that is both germane to the course and reflects their own research agendas. I would expect the paper to be a relatively extensive literature review of a particular theme, with a J. Michael Ryan critical assessment of debates and lacunae within the literature. Alternatively, and with my University of Michigan permission, those students currently involved in activism would be encouraged to use that experience in concert with course reading to analyze that experience. I would also be open to projects that provide a critical assessment of popular media s response to women and social protest (i.e. the examination of film, television, etc.), again, as long at the project is approved. Readings: Assigned books, articles, chapters, and other readings appear under the weekly topics in the course schedule. They are all available on electronic and regular reserve. In some cases we will read an entire book and in other cases, selections, TBA. 200 22

Laura Miller Juliet Schor Movements Department of and Sociology Media in Latin America 519 McGuinn Markus Pearlman S. 103 Schulz 140 Commonwealth Ave. New Brandeis York University Boston College Waltham, MA 02454 Chestnut Hill, MA 02467 COMMENT: This is a syllabus for a graduate seminar juliet.schor@bc.edu on social movements that I taught at New York University s Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies. The course content is nontraditional Lisa Peñaloza in several aspects. Its case material focuses Sara heavily Steen on Latin America, rather than just the College United of States. Business Accordingly, the readings are not exclusively Department by of North Sociology American scholars but many Bus 468 are by Latin American and European authors. The 219 Ketchum required readings Hall are limited to what is available University in of English, Colorado but many of the recommended readings University are of in Colorado other languages. Particular attention Boulder, CO is given 80309 to the relation between movements Boulder, and media, CO the 80309 latter including not only mass media and the Internet but also graffiti, music, steen@colorado.edu and dance.

Special Department consideration of Sociology will be given and to the economics Meghan Ashlin of movement-media Rich dynamics. Some of the Anthropology main questions the course will address include: Department How of do Sociology movements and emerge Criminal and on what conditions Ohio University does their success depend on? What Justice role do movements play in transitions to and consolidations Athens, OH 45701 of democracy? How do movements University of relate Delaware to and create publics and counter-publics, and on what does their efficacy depend Newark, on? DE Which 19716 strategies do movements use for communicating with the larger society and how are the different types of media being employed Melanie (e.g. mass Wallendorf demonstration, street theater, music, mouth-to-mouth propaganda, graffiti, flyers, newspapers, Department of radio, Marketing television, video, phone, fax, George email, Ritzer web sites)? How do the structure and operative Eller College logic of of different Management media types impact movements? Department of How Sociology do the conditions for movements University change with of the Arizona decoupling of media from state University control of and Maryland the dedifferentiation of media and market? Tucson, AZ 85721 The aim of the course is to provide students with a solid grounding in movement theory, recognition of its relations to broader questions of social, Frederick economic, Wherry political, and cultural J. transformation, Michael Ryan and an opportunity to develop a research Department project of their Sociology own. Department Course Format of Sociology and Requirements University of Michigan College This course Park, has MD an 20742 interactive and research-oriented format. The first part of the course is designed to provide students with a broad overview of the different approaches to movements and contentious politics. The second part then zooms in on movements-media dynamics in the context of selected cases. The readings and cases could be amended, depending on student interests. Students are encouraged to form groups to research primary sources on selected cases of interest and present findings in class. An electronic discussion board will be installed to facilitate communication and foster student collaboration. Course members are invited to circulate preparation materials for class and exchange thoughts on course-related matters in this electronic extension of the class-room. 200 27

This course Bus offers 468 an exploration of such moments.

Over the course of the semester, we will address the steen@colorado.edu questions of what constitutes a social movement, when and where they occur, who joins social movements and why, how they are Jan organized, Phillips what strategies they use, how they are affected Joel Stillerman by institutions like the state and the Department media, and what of Social impacts and they have on individuals and 2166 on society.

What can ordinary people do to bring Lisa Peñaloza about social change? How can they organize themselves Sara Steen effectively without sacrificing the very College values of Business for which they are fighting? This course Department combines: 1) of reading, Sociology discussion, and writing Bus 468 about strategies for social change; 2) workshops 219 on Ketchum practical Hall organizing skills like participatory University of decision-making, Colorado publicity and outreach, University campaign of research, Colorado nonviolent tactics, alliance-building, etc.; and 3) a collective action project Boulder, which CO the 80309 class will research, design, and carry out together. Students should have either prior steen@colorado.edu coursework in social issues/social movements or activist experience. Jan Phillips Joel Stillerman Department of Social and 2166 AuSable Hall Course Format Behavioral Science Grand Valley State University University The course of is Southern designed to Maine/ have a strong experiential component. Allendale, MI It is 49401 meant to give you practical Lewiston-Auburn knowledge of various College kinds of organizing skills and stillejo@gvsu.edu hands-on experience using them in a Lewiston, collective project. ME 04240 At the same time, we will be discussing these issues and the various options we look with an evaluative eye, considering the practical Deborah and Thorne ethical implications of various options available to organizers in terms of how to mobilize Department people, of how Sociology to deal and with the media, what Meghan strategies Ashlin for Rich social change work best, what tactics, Anthropology etc. Also, many of the options that have been Department tried historically of Sociology are and either Criminal not within the scope Ohio of this University course for us to try ourselves (developing Justice a national coalition, for example) or are Athens, ethically/morally OH 45701 inappropriate to be carrying University out of as Delaware a class (e.g. violent tactics), yet it is important from an intellectual standpoint to understand Newark, DE what 19716 has been tried in the past and what has or has not worked in different situations. Consequently, the format of the course is designed so Melanie that the Wallendorf experiential parallel to each other over the course of the semester - in each class period, Department we will spend of Marketing approximately half of the time George discussing Ritzer more abstract questions in the readings Eller and College the other of Management half of the time working on the Department group project. of Sociology In order for us to complete the project/action University of within Arizona the scope of the semester, University I have built of a number Maryland of benchmarks into the schedule Tucson, for progress AZ 85721 on the project. Because of the collective nature much of what we will be doing this term, and because the goal of the course is to allow you to grow in your capacity Frederick to engage Wherry in issues of concern to you, I J. have Michael designed Ryan the course to have a somewhat emergent Department character. of While Sociology some things are less Department flexible than of others Sociology (workshops done by outside trainers, University for example), of Michigan there is room in the University syllabus for of us Maryland to customize the readings and topics as Ann the Arbor, course MI unfolds, 48109 based on your needs College and interests Park, and MD the 20742 requirements of the project we choose. Consequently, I have left some of the reading assignments tentative or blank for now and after about the third week, you will get an updated syllabus based on the decisions we have made between now and then about the project (the required books will not change). Likewise, in weeks 6 or 7, we will take a look at the suggested topics for the last half of the course, and if the class has developed interests in other questions, we can reorganize things to work them in. 200 104

The CO 80309 remaining parts of the course focus on three analytical questions: what is the relationship steen@colorado.edu between social movements and their most important interlocutors, states and political parties?

Position Papers: In addition to strengthening your presentation skills, the seminar puts a premium on analytical reading and writing skills. The position papers (to be submitted at the beginning of class) should provide a succinct analysis of a specific aspect of one or more readings. They should never be summaries or lists of quotes from the readings but instead offer your reasoned interpretation of what you read, supported by page references. 200 115

Social Laura Miller Justice in a Global Context Juliet Schor Mathew Department Williams of Sociology 519 McGuinn Boston Pearlman College 103 140 Commonwealth Ave. Brandeis University Boston College Course Waltham, Description MA 02454 Chestnut Hill, MA 02467 This class is structured around a teaching game, the Global juliet.schor@bc.edu Justice Game, developed (with some help from me and others) by Bill Gamson, a professor emeritus here at BC. (All materials necessary Lisa Peñaloza to play the game are available at the Global Sara Justice Steen Game website, http://www.globaljusticegame.mrap.info/) College of Business Although Department playing it should of Sociology be fun, it should also be a meaningful Bus 468 learning experience--the game is structured 219 to Ketchum simulate Hall various real-world social dynamics University to of help Colorado you better understand them. Specifically, University the game of Colorado deals with economic globalization and the global justice movement (often--and Boulder, somewhat CO 80309 incorrectly--known as the anti-globalization movement). In addition to helping steen@colorado.edu you understand the forces of globalization, this game should also help you understand some bigger sociological concepts. The game and class Jan Phillips come from what is known in sociology as a critical Joel Stillerman perspective--that is, one that believes sociologists Department of should Social focus and on questions connected to social 2166 AuSable justice and Hall support movements working Behavioral for Science social justice. Thus the game is designed Grand not only Valley to help State students University learn about the sociology University of globalization, Southern Maine/ but to help activists learn Allendale, to think strategically. MI 49401 Students of any political Lewiston-Auburn persuasion College are welcome to take the class--and stillejo@gvsu.edu to challenge me--but you should be aware of Lewiston, this basic ME political 04240 orientation when you decide if this class is one you will enjoy. Deborah Thorne We will start with a couple classes centered around lectures, Department in which of Sociology we will go and over the basics about Meghan economic Ashlin Rich globalization, the global justice movement Anthropology and the mass media. Though most of the Department readings of will Sociology be from a and progressive Criminal perspective, there Ohio will University be readings representing all sides of Justice the globalization debate. There will be a fair amount Athens, of reading OH 45701 during these first few weeks. Once University we have of Delaware completed these introductory lectures, we will begin to play the Global Justice Game. Newark, The DE Game 19716 is made up of seven scenarios, of which we will play six. The first five will take two-and-a-half sessions to play, which will be followed Melanie by Wallendorf one-and-a-half classes of lecture and discussion, for a total of four classes per scenario. Department The sixth and of Marketing final scenario, which is structured George Ritzer slightly differently, will take only two classes Eller to College play, with of Management one class set aside for class discussion. Department Each of Sociology scenario has game-related material University you will need of Arizona to read, plus more scholarly readings University that of will Maryland build on the introductory material, Tucson, to give you AZ a 85721 progressively more in-depth picture College of Park, economic MD 20742 globalization and the global justice movement. The amount of reading during this second part of the class shouldn t be as heavy as during the first few weeks. The J. Michael Global Ryan Justice Game is a role-playing game--for Department each scenario, of Sociology a group of you will be assigned Department to play of Sociology a particular organization, such as a branch University of the of US Michigan government, a corporation, a University third-world of government, Maryland an activist organization, or Ann a media Arbor, outlet. MI 48109 Which team you will play will College vary Park, from MD scenario 20742 to scenario, so by the end of the semester, you will have played a wide range of roles. Each team has its own distinct set of success indicators; these success indicators represent real-world social forces that the real-life equivalent of your organization would need to worry about, such as the price of stock for corporations or popular support for activist groups. As you play each scenario, you want to strategize about not only how to achieve your goals in the scenario, but how to raise your success indicators--indeed, your success indicators should give you a good sense of what your goals are. Some teams (such as corporations or the World Trade 200 121

Organization) Laura Miller should have an easier time raising their Juliet scores Schor than others (activist groups or thirdworld Department countries), of Sociology reflecting the inequalities in power 519 of the McGuinn real world.

Laura Miller Designing Your Own Social Juliet Movement Schor Exercise 519 McGuinn Emily Pearlman A. Bowman 103 Indiana Brandeis University 140 Commonwealth Ave. Boston College Waltham, MA 02454 Chestnut Hill, MA 02467 TEACHING/LEARNING OBJECTIVES & OUTCOMES juliet.schor@bc.edu I Lisa have Peñaloza used the following design-your-own-social movement Sara Steen exercise essentially as a review of College a social of movements Business unit I teach in a broader course Department on social change. of Sociology Although I have used roughly Bus 468 the same exercise as both an individual paper 219 assignment Ketchum and Hall a take-home essay exam question, University I think of Colorado it really works best as a group project University assignment of Colorado that culminates in a classroom presentation. When used as a group assignment, I randomly Boulder, place CO 80309 students in groups (generally consisting of 3 to 5 people depending on class size) by steen@colorado.edu having them draw numbers from a hat. Because the groups are randomly selected, group members often initially struggle in making Jan decisions Phillips about what type of social movement they want Joel Stillerman to create since they often have different Department political and of social Social views. and I find these initial group discussions 2166 AuSable are Hall quite interesting as group Behavioral members teach Science each other about social problems they Grand personally Valley find State vexing. University University of Southern Maine/ Allendale, MI 49401 Lewiston-Auburn Beyond spurring students College to discuss and teach each other stillejo@gvsu.edu about social problems, the assignment Lewiston, encourages ME students 04240 to use their creativity while motivating them to think of ways to ameliorate/solve social issues. It also stimulates extensive Deborah classroom Thorne discussion about these matters and the possibilities and pitfalls of social movement Department activity of Sociology on the day(s) and of Meghan presentation. Ashlin Overall, Rich I think this is an effective group Anthropology assignment because it forces students to Department place themselves of Sociology within a and social Criminal movement, thus facilitating Ohio University a deeper understanding not only of Justice social movement concepts and dynamics, but also of Athens, interplay OH 45701 between structure and agency. University of Delaware Newark, DE 19716 EXERCISE Melanie Wallendorf Department of Marketing So George you want Ritzer to start your own social movement, huh? Eller College of Management University of Arizona Describe University your of Maryland plan for organizing and managing an ideal Tucson, social AZ movement. 85721 In writing your response, College Park, you MD can either 20742 create your own movement discuss the ways in which you would improve upon a present or past social movement. You need only briefly identify the movement; the overwhelming majority of your response should focus Frederick on demonstrating Wherry and applying your J. knowledge Michael Ryan of social movement dynamics. In constructing Department your response, of Sociology be sure to support your ideas Department with evidence of Sociology from the course readings and lecture University notes. of You Michigan will need to address the following University topics: of Maryland (a) Think of a social movement you are interested in be it currently in action, long since dead, or just a figment of your own imagination. To do this, you may find it helpful to identify a social problem you want to fix. Briefly identify that movement and its goals concerning social change (e.g., What does the movement hope to accomplish? Is the movement focused on promoting or resisting social change?) 200 146

(b) Laura Identify Miller and describe the adherents/participants, beneficiaries, Juliet Schor and antagonists associated Department with the of movement. Sociology 519 McGuinn Pearlman 103 140 Commonwealth Ave. (c) Brandeis Given University what you have learned about social movements, Boston if College you were to be the key figure(s) or Waltham, (humor MA me 02454 here) the mastermind(s) behind this Chestnut social movement, Hill, MA 02467 what steps would you take to ensure (as much as you possibly could) success? juliet.schor@bc.edu How would you convince, encourage, and recruit people to participate in your movement? What strategies and noninstitutional Peñaloza tactics would you use to create opportunities Sara Steen for success? Why do you think Lisa College these of strategies Business and tactics are the best options? Department What types of social Sociology movement Bus organizations 468 (SMOs) would you want to become 219 involved? Ketchum How Hall would the strategies and University tactics used of Colorado by these organizations differ? In what University ways would of Colorado these organizations Boulder, complement CO 80309 one another? steen@colorado.edu (d) In the end, how would you measure success or failure of your movement? (i.e. What Jan MUST Phillips be accomplished in order for you to consider Joel your Stillerman movement successful?) What Department barriers would of Social you and face in achieving success? 2166 AuSable Hall Behavioral Science Grand Valley State University University of Southern Maine/ Allendale, MI 49401 Lewiston-Auburn POTENTIAL PITFALLS College stillejo@gvsu.edu Lewiston, ME 04240 One of the potential pitfalls of using this exercise in class Deborah is the Thorne issue of time. I try to give groups some initial time to work on the project in class, Department but most of Sociology the work on and it will be done outside Meghan of Ashlin class time. Rich I also try to limit groups to 15 Anthropology minute presentations, but find that students often Department become of so Sociology invested and in and Criminal excited about the project Ohio that University they want more time to present their Justice work. Another potential problem is that the exercise Athens, in OH some 45701 ways forces students to think a University bit simplistically of Delaware about major social issues. Although I am always prepared as the instructor to remind Newark, students DE 19716 that there are many other factors to consider when attempting to solve a social problem, I find that the students themselves usually make Melanie this Wallendorf point either in their own presentations or in response to the presentations of others.

Final Laura Assignment: Miller Board Game Neal Pearlman Caren 103 Department Brandeis University of Sociology University Waltham, MA of North 02454 Carolina at Chapel Hill Juliet Schor 519 McGuinn 140 Commonwealth Ave. Boston College Chestnut Hill, MA 02467 juliet.schor@bc.edu This Lisa Peñaloza is the major assignment for the semester. Working Sara in Steen your group, you will design a board College game about of Business the social movement that you have selected. Department This assignment of Sociology will require you to apply Bus 468 the theoretical concepts from the course to the 219 specifics Ketchum of your Hall movement. You will be University graded on your of Colorado use of social movement theory; your University mastery of of the Colorado facts surrounding the history Boulder, of your social CO 80309 movement; your application of theory Boulder, to the movement; CO 80309 and how well the game plays. Each member of the group will receive the same steen@colorado.edu grade for this assignment. This assignment is in place of both a final exam and a final paper. Plus, there will be a couple of you Jan working Phillips on it. As such, I expect something really, really Joel Stillerman good. Department of Social and 2166 AuSable Hall Behavioral The Sociology Science (50% of Grade) Grand Valley State University As University this is a of sociology Southern class, Maine/ the aspects of social movement Allendale, theory MI that 49401 that you incorporate into your Lewiston-Auburn game the most College important part of the project. stillejo@gvsu.edu The rules of your game should be based on your Lewiston, sociologically ME 04240 informed understanding of how social movements operate. You should not try to cram everything we cover during the semester Deborah into the game, Thorne but rather the game should reflect your nuanced understanding of the most relevant Department ideas. So of if Sociology you were and Doug McAdam in 1982 Meghan building Ashlin a Rich board game on the civil rights movement, Anthropology you would focus largely on indigenous Department organization of Sociology strength, and Criminal cognitive liberation, Ohio and University political opportunities, and not spend any Justice time on framing. For building your game, you will Athens, probably OH 45701 need to draw from more than one University author of or Delaware topic. For example, if your focus were on the media and social movements, you would Newark, also DE want 19716 to include things on framing. Finally, the game should not merely mimic what the authors we have read believe, but rather should be Melanie based on Wallendorf your critical understanding of how movements actually function. Should frames be Department divided between of Marketing diagnostic, prognostic and motivational? George Ritzer Explain why you make the distinctions Eller you College do. of Management University of Arizona The University Movement of Maryland (30% of Grade) Tucson, AZ 85721 You College should Park, be MD very 20742 familiar with the social movement that your game is modeling. It will make the game more interesting, and it is part of your grade. Your game can focus on the entire life span of a movement, or upon a single campaign or event. Frederick Most Wherry of the game should involve J. events Michael that Ryan actually occurred, but it might make sense Department to also allow of Sociology for the path not taken. Movements Department of that Sociology succeed in real life might be able to University fail in your of game. Michigan At the end of your game instructions, University of you Maryland should include a Suggestions for further Ann Arbor, reading MI list, 48109 including books and other College resources Park, MD that 20742 you found particularly helpful. Two great places for including specific historic details are in the squares that players land on, and on the cards that they draw. The Game (20% of Grade) The third part of your grade is how well the game plays. This doesn t mean that every player has to have an equal chance of winning my guess is that the communists will only take control of Alabama during the depression 1 in 100 times but it does mean everyone should have a chance at winning. Most importantly, it means that the game should be fun. 200 148

You Laura could Miller use a wide variety of currently existing games Juliet as Schor your model for this project, such as Monopoly, Department Life, of Sociology Risk or Chutes and Ladders. The game 519 McGuinn can not be a merely a question and answer Pearlman game, 103 such as Trivial Pursuit or Scruples, and 140 it can t Commonwealth be role playing Ave. game like Dungeons Brandeis University & Dragons. You might want to start by thinking Boston how College you would adapt a current Waltham, game, or you MA could 02454 begin from scratch, importing ideas Chestnut from one Hill, game MA 02467 or another. juliet.schor@bc.edu Your game should either be a board game of the style of Life and Class Struggle, where you move Lisa Peñaloza from the beginning to the end along a fixed path; Sara a circular Steen route in the style of Monopoly where College players of Business encounter the same squares as they rotate Department along the of board; Sociology or a map game, like Risk. Bus 468 Players could represent either individuals who 219 participate Ketchum in Hall the movement, opposing sides, University the government, of Colorado movement organizations, or just University about anything. of Colorado Think creatively. For me and I grade these things fun games generally steen@colorado.edu involve letting players make decisions. Games where you simply moving along a fixed path based on the dice are generally boring. Importantly, Jan Phillips this is probably also true of good social Joel theory. Stillerman Theories where large structural forces Department determine of Social everything, and and individual action means 2166 nothing AuSable don t Hall describe the social world very Behavioral well. Movements Science make decisions, and these decisions Grand Valley have consequences. State University University of Southern Maine/ Allendale, MI 49401 Production Lewiston-Auburn quality College need only be high enough so that stillejo@gvsu.edu it won t interfere with the game play. Lewiston, ME 04240 The final product should be playable without any member Deborah of your Thorne group present. This means that not only do you have to include a board and pieces, Department but you also of Sociology have to include and a manual. The Meghan manual Ashlin is an Rich excellent opportunity for you to defend Anthropology your theoretical and empirical decisions, Department and of to Sociology go into greater and Criminal detail. The full rules Ohio for Class University Struggle are a great example of this. Justice You should also have a list of five to ten resources Athens, that OH people 45701 can turn to find out more about University the movement. of Delaware I can not say strongly enough that you must have a thorough manual. Pretend Newark, as DE if your 19716 entire grade was based merely on the weight of your manual. Melanie Wallendorf The Group Department of Marketing This George project Ritzer is a group assignment, and each member Eller will College receive the of Management same grade. This means that Department each member of Sociology should be doing approximately the University same amount of Arizona of work. Groups should meet both University in and of out Maryland of class. If there is any problem with Tucson, a group AZ member s 85721 level of participation, this College should Park, be MD brought 20742 to the instructor s attention as soon as possible. The instructor may remove an individual from the group, and he or she will be required to complete his or her own game, based on a different social movement. No free Frederick riders. Wherry J. Michael Ryan Department Some Example of Sociology that I made up University of Michigan Political University Process: of Maryland The Game Each College player Park, is MD an African 20742 American minister in a different city in the South, circa 1950. The object is to win full equality for all town residents. Players go through a board very similar to the game of Life. Players attempt to collect enough Cognitive Liberation and Organizational resources, so that when they land on a Political Opportunity square, they are able to capitalize on it. At the end of the game, the player with the most Equality cards wins. While some Political Opportunities squares apply to only the player who lands on them, some, such apply to all players. [Note: I don t actually like this game. It strikes me as too structural.] 200 149

Countermovements! Laura Miller Juliet Schor In Department this game, of players Sociology compete for the civil rights of lesbian 519 McGuinn and gay Americans. This is for 2-4 players, Pearlman and 103 is played on a map of the U.S. Players compete 140 Commonwealth to implement Ave. or revoke gay rights in Brandeis every state University across the country. The pro-gay team wins Boston when College they get equality legislation in 30 Waltham, states; the MA anti-gay 02454 team when they repeal all but five. Chestnut With two Hill, players, MA 02467 one player is pro-gay, the other anti-gay. With more players, the anti-gay side juliet.schor@bc.edu can be split between a secular movement and a religious movement; the pro-gay side can be split between moderate and radical. The board Lisa Peñaloza starts reflecting current legislation, with some Sara states Steen offering protection, but most not. In any College given of turn, Business a player can either initiate a new state Department battle, attempt of Sociology grassroots organizing, or simple Bus 468 accumulate resources. A state battle is decided 219 by Ketchum the dice Hall rolling, with extra points awarded University for of a Colorado variety of factors...

Imagination Laura Miller Assignment 1 Seeing Social Movements Juliet Schor 519 McGuinn Stephen Pearlman J. 103 Scanlan 140 Commonwealth Ave. Ohio Brandeis University Boston College Waltham, MA 02454 Chestnut Hill, MA 02467 An important component of studying social movements juliet.schor@bc.edu is seeing their activities unfold. In this regard one can explore their dynamics and outcomes, analyze their tactics, understand social movement Lisa Peñaloza organizations and participants, and get at Sara the reasons Steen for their mobilization and beliefs. College of This Business assignment is an effort to get you into Department the field to of enable Sociology you to see social movement Bus 468 activities. Students can do this in one of two 219 ways: Ketchum 1) Critically Hall evaluating a film for its University significance of Colorado to the study of social movements, be University it in its depiction of Colorado of a social movement or the Boulder, voice CO that 80309 it gives to a movement, or 2) Witnessing Boulder, firsthand CO and 80309 critically evaluating a social movement activity or collective action event. steen@colorado.edu Jan Option Phillips 1: Sociologically analyzing a film Joel Stillerman Department of Social and 2166 AuSable Hall Behavioral Film is not just Science a component of popular culture or key Grand form Valley of mass State media; University it is also an University important voice of Southern that brings Maine/ relevance to numerous political Allendale, issues MI and 49401 debates occurring in Lewiston-Auburn society. In addition College it is a viable means with which to stillejo@gvsu.edu observe social movement activity when it Lewiston, otherwise ME unobservable 04240 as when it occurred in the past, or in places other than in our own backyard. With this option, you are to observe a social Deborah movement Thorne depicted in film as if you were in the field and analyze it using the theoretical perspectives, Department ideas, of Sociology and other and tools you have developed Meghan Ashlin sociology. Rich Anthropology and Criminal Ohio University The Justice details and write-up Athens, OH 45701 University of Delaware As Newark, when DE observing 19716 a real social movement, you want to watch the film and account for its events as if you were trapped in celluloid with its actors and Melanie witnessing Wallendorf it as if reality. Thus, you must try to become engulfed in the activities, characters, images, Department and themes of Marketing of the film so as to George analyze Ritzer the events from a sociological perspective. Eller College of Management University of Arizona University In analyzing of the Maryland film you want to provide not only description Tucson, AZ of 85721 events and background of the College social movement/protest Park, MD 20742 activities but also must analyze it by considering the following guidelines and questions as appropriate: J. Michael 1. Ryan Can the actions depicted in the film be Department considered of a social Sociology movement or is Department it more of Sociology an example of less permanent or transitory University collective of Michigan action events? How University does of it Maryland fit the definition and conceptualization Ann of social Arbor, movements MI 48109 that we have College examined?

Laura 3. Miller Discuss a component of the social movement Juliet Schor dynamics as depicted in the Department film. of There Sociology are a large number of possible options 519 McGuinn here, so be specific with what Pearlman best 103 fits your movement and film. For example, 140 what Commonwealth role does institutional Ave. Brandeis authority University have in provoking or limiting movement Boston activities College or how is the Waltham, movement MA 02454 or events surrounding it framed by Chestnut participants Hill, or MA those 02467 outside of the movement? Other options include movement juliet.schor@bc.edu decline/history, barriers to mobilization, internal struggles and leadership, bureaucratization, cooptation, Lisa Peñaloza globalization, etc. Sara Steen College 4. of Business Finally, briefly critique the film for its Department usefulness of in capturing Sociology the essence Bus 468 of the social movement of interest and the broader 219 Ketchum study of Hall social movements. University What of were Colorado its strengths and weaknesses? How University close did of it Colorado depict reality as Boulder, opposed CO 80309 to being merely Hollywood fluff? steen@colorado.edu These are the essential points that you could consider in your paper, assuming their relevance to the Jan film Phillips of choice. Focus on the elements most appropriate Joel Stillerman for your analysis and feel free to include Department additional of Social extensions and as appropriate. There are 2166 multiple AuSable ways Hall that the write-up for this assignment Behavioral Science can be done depending on the film and social Grand movement Valley State of interest University and the above considerations University of Southern will be easier Maine/ to do for some films than Allendale, for others. MI 49401 Lewiston-Auburn College stillejo@gvsu.edu I Lewiston, have attached ME 04240 a list of potential films from which you can select as an appendix to this document. I encourage you to select something that Deborah reflects your Thorne interest in a particular social movement. If you have questions about any of these Department please let me of know. Sociology Also, and this list is by no Meghan means exhaustive Ashlin Rich and I am always searching for additional Anthropology options, so if you are interested in Department viewing something of Sociology not on and the list Criminal or give me ideas for Ohio should University be on the list, please let me know. Justice Athens, OH 45701 Option University 2: of Sociologically Delaware analyzing a social movement collective action event Newark, DE 19716 For this option you can take part at a couple of levels. Melanie You can Wallendorf either fully participate in the activity, thus doing what marchers and protestors do, Department or you can simply of Marketing observe from the sidelines. George Ritzer This choice is yours. The most important Eller thing College is that you of Management enable yourself to become engulfed Department in the of Sociology surroundings of the activities so as to University adequately of describe Arizona and analyze the events from University a sociological of Maryland perspective. This is what the essence Tucson, of fieldwork AZ 85721 to study social movements is College all about! Park, MD 20742 At the event you want to look for and record a number Frederick of things Wherry including, but certainly not limited J. Michael to the Ryan following considerations: University of Michigan University 1. How of is Maryland this event indicative of a social movement Ann Arbor, as depicted MI 48109 in course materials?

Laura Miller participants. Why are people participating? Juliet What are Schor their demands? Why are Department they of here? Sociology 519 McGuinn Pearlman 4. Are 103 there counter-protests?

What MA role 02454 did institutional authorities play in Chestnut the day's Hill, events? MA What 02467 role did the police have? Were they a large presence? juliet.schor@bc.edu 6. What kind of media presence was there? Did local news and mainstream media Lisa Peñaloza portray events differently than you observed? Sara Steen College 7. How of Business do you feel about participating/observing? Department Why did of you Sociology choose one option Bus 468 versus another? 219 Ketchum Hall While Boulder, in the CO field 80309 you will want to record your observations Boulder, as CO carefully 80309 as possible, either with a miniature voice recorder or small notebook. A digital steen@colorado.edu cameral is an excellent research tool as well. Thorough field notes and visual or recorded material are essential because the human mind retains Jan Phillips vastly greater details of what is written down Joel or captured Stillerman electronically as opposed to what Department is just heard of Social or seen. and In addition to observations, 2166 interviewing AuSable Hall participants is also a valuable Behavioral source Science of information, enabling you to garner Grand a number Valley of State feelings University and perspectives on the University event. Finally, of Southern it is Maine/ also important to collect other Allendale, data and supplementary MI 49401 materials associated Lewiston-Auburn with the College event including various flyers being stillejo@gvsu.edu distributed, newspaper articles, and so forth. Lewiston, Search ME for 04240 media coverage of the event prior to and after it takes place. Such archival material has important stories to tell. The more details Deborah you walk Thorne away with from the days events, the better your analysis will be so be a good scavenger. and Meghan Ashlin Rich Anthropology Writing Department up your of Sociology observations and Criminal Ohio University Justice Athens, OH 45701 In University general, of I expect Delaware everyone to briefly answer the question "what is a social movement?" using course Newark, materials DE 19716 and observations from the day. Then, with regard to the events you witness, you should decide upon a theme to guide their observations Melanie and Wallendorf use this to write the remainder of the paper. See the questions above pertaining to films Department for additional of Marketing ideas. This is what will make George the Ritzer paper scholarly and sociological, as opposed Eller to a College mere reporting of Management of events. The social movement Department or of collective Sociology action event will serve as your University case and of principle Arizona data source. The key is University that you want of Maryland to make observations and use them as Tucson, evidence AZ to 85721 support more analytical considerations. General guidelines for both options J.

Despite Laura Miller my clarity about the differences and limitations Juliet of Schor my roles, campus administration has accused Department of masterminding Sociology and orchestrating student 519 activities McGuinn when undertaken by groups of which Pearlman I am 103 only a normal member, as well as student 140 activities Commonwealth and organizations Ave. with which I had Brandeis no connection University whatsoever (really). Once my connection Boston College with student activism became known, Waltham, rather MA wild 02454 rumours were generated. (My wearied Chestnut chair Hill, would MA call 02467 me in and say I m quite sure you are not giving your students extra credit juliet.schor@bc.edu for throwing bricks through Starbucks windows, but I suppose I have to ask because I got a call this morning from a Professor over in... ) Lisa Peñaloza Sara Steen College Furthermore, of Business my connections with student activism Department were of widely Sociology interpreted as directive, despite Bus 468 the fact that I have no history of political activity 219 Ketchum or writing Hall which can be taken to endorse University hierarchical of Colorado organizations. I am continually University puzzled by of how Colorado my peers across the campus, Boulder, who CO 80309 like me are frustrated by the failure of our Boulder, maximum CO 80309 powers of manipulation at the task of getting students to read, can imagine that I somehow steen@colorado.edu successfully manipulate students to the inconveniences of activism. Jan Phillips Setting out as an assistant professor to do what Joel I thought Stillerman was good sociology by forging Department connections of Social between and the issues in our books, 2166 our campus, AuSable and Hall our society, I have been taken Behavioral by surprise Science when some of my colleagues, whose Grand ideologies Valley and State scholarly University focus differ little from University my own, of Southern have taken Maine/ offense to my public exhortations Allendale, to action. MI 49401 I was not aware that I was engaging Lewiston-Auburn in activity College that would be seen as professionally stillejo@gvsu.edu inappropriate by colleagues in sociology Lewiston, departments, ME 04240 and by others across the campus who I would have assumed would be allies, based on the political content of their classes and Deborah lectures Thorne (as reported by students). A colleague expresses the same problem: They wanted Department to hire a political of Sociology person, and but it has become Meghan clear Ashlin that Rich the faculty is divided over what that Anthropology means, and few of them think _doing_ politics Department is appropriate. of Sociology The and last Criminal year has been eye-opening Ohio University for me as people I thought were supportive Justice of my political agenda appear to be far more Athens, moderate OH 45701 than I am and I am no radical. University of Delaware Newark, I give DE this 19716 rather extensive prefatory note not to encourage self-censorship, but because I believe that activist-scholars should be aware of the institutional Melanie Wallendorf interpretations of such work before embarking on it. At the very least, we need to Department be savvy about of Marketing addressing these issues in annual George reviews, Ritzer etc., and in order to do that, we need Eller a sense College of how of such Management work is often misinterpreted Department of or Sociology used against people. The friend quoted University above of goes Arizona to provide some strategic advice: University The of way Maryland I do it now is by wrapping myself Tucson, in the rhetoric AZ 85721 of service learning/global citizenship/public College Park, MD sociology/civic 20742 engagement...wrap it in their orthodoxy The exercise J. Michael Ryan I Department usually start of by Sociology asking the students if they would like University to have some of Michigan kind of participatory project in University lieu of a of paper Maryland or an exam. They usually say yes. Ann I ask Arbor, them MI what 48109 they would like to do. They College usually Park, have MD 20742 a lot of good ideas. Several students usually express the desire to do something about one (or all) of the social problems we have been studying during the semester. I ask them if they would like their exam/paper/final project to be actually doing something active together about an issue from the class. Usually about ¾ of the class are enthusiastic about this. (Note I do not lay out terms and conditions yet. Note, the hesitancy of the other ¼ will be addressed later.) I ask them to brainstorm what kinds of things they would like to work on and I write everything they say on the board. (I shortening and clarifying what they say, but staying close to the terms they use. Double-barreled proposals should be broken in two.) I let this go on for 20 200 169

minutes Laura Miller or so, eliciting LOTS of ideas and using participatory Juliet Schor methods of trying to hear from nearly Department everyone of Sociology instead of only the ones who have a 519 lot to McGuinn say. I do not react to any of the ideas. Once Pearlman the board 103 is overflowing and I feel that they ve 140 run Commonwealth out of ideas, I stop Ave. and step back and look Brandeis at it with University them. This is a good time to mention how Boston great College it is that they care about all of these Waltham, things MA and 02454 how many great ideas they have. Chestnut Hill, MA 02467 The things on the board will be of many different juliet.schor@bc.edu types. Some will be a problem like racism or a reference to a course reading. Some will be a recent event on campus, or a national or Lisa international Peñaloza event. Some will be very specific action Sara proposals. Steen Here I do two kinds of filtering. College of First Business I draw connections (lines on the board, Department or making another of Sociology list, without erasing anything) Bus 468 between groups of ideas. I try to get the 30219 items Ketchum on the board Hall down to 5-8 issues that capture University almost of Colorado all of the original ideas. (Always, a few University outliers are of Colorado discarded. I am attentive to not Boulder, discarding CO 80309 anything that was the only suggestion Boulder, of a particular CO 80309 student. I feel more comfortable discarding ideas that were proposed as one steen@colorado.edu of several by a single student.) I give short names to each of these 5-8 ideas, each of which are jumbles of possibilities, different levels, Jan Phillips etc. Then I use some sort of democratic process Joel for Stillerman getting down to one or two of these. (Note Department that at of this Social point, and what they are choosing still contains 2166 AuSable a lot of Hall different possibilities.) I say Behavioral one two Science because at this point I have to make a judgment Grand Valley about State whether University enough of them are University going to be of happy Southern with Maine/ one idea, whether there need Allendale, to be two groups. MI 49401 (Personally, I would work Lewiston-Auburn with topics in multiples College of 20 students. In a class of 80, stillejo@gvsu.edu I would have 4 topics. But if I had a class Lewiston, of 20 with ME two 04240 really strong interests, I would probably let them have 2 groups.) Also sometimes one of the ideas is problematic because it is not closely Deborah enough Thorne related to course materials or I know that they will not have much to work with if they Department take on that of Sociology issue. Sometimes and I get them Meghan down to three Ashlin and Rich I say that I reserve the right to choose Anthropology one of the three topics, and I ll Department announce my of decision Sociology next and class. Criminal (The authority that Ohio I reserve University as part of this process is not used Justice as my political preference, but to try to make sure that Athens, they will OH have 45701 a good organizing University experience, of which Delaware means, that they will find some resources to work with, they will be relatively Newark, safe, they DE will 19716 be able to get something accomplished, etc. Sometimes I do not exercise my reserved authority at all, sometimes I do it several times Melanie during Wallendorf a project.) At this point I let them know that I will be announcing Department to of them Marketing the procedures, grading, George etc. for the Ritzer assignment and I emphasize that any student Eller who College becomes of Management uncomfortable with any Department aspect of the of process Sociology at any time, can make a special University arrangement of with Arizona me to get their grade in a University different way of Maryland (more about this below.) Tucson, AZ 85721 College Once Park, the MD topics 20742 are chosen, its time for some background research and reflection. Betsy Leondar-Wright of MRAP 4 suggests having the students develop research questions about the issue based on the course readings and class discussions. Frederick Kim Bachechi Wherry of MRAP suggests finding J. Michael all of Ryan the organizations in the local area who Department work on this of issue, Sociology and do a little comparison Department of their Sociology approaches. (So as not to bother University these organizations, of Michigan I would instruct the students University to of just Maryland do web research on this. More research Ann comes Arbor, later.) MI 48109 College The Park, next MD phase 20742 of the process is action planning. I use the attached strategic action planning worksheet, which is a combination of several very similar documents gathered from organizations who do community organizing training. Every student has a copy of this worksheet 4 This write-up comes on the heels of a fantastic discussion of such exercises by the Media Research and Action Group (MRAP) of Boston College and I cannot resist including some ideas generated by that discussion. I have cited each such idea, with permission of the author. I must note that I do not personally have experience with using these ideas, but my experience leads me to include them because I think they would be useful. 200 170
