Synopsis

"Protest Movements" explores the crucial role of social movements and political activism in shaping American democracy and legislative outcomes. It examines the anatomy of successful protests, the socio-economic factors driving dissent, and the tangible legislative consequences achieved through collective action. The book highlights how protest movements, while sometimes disruptive, are integral to a functioning democracy, serving as mechanisms for addressing systemic inequalities and holding power accountable. For example, the book analyzes how movements related to civil rights and labor rights have influenced policy.

 
The book progresses from theoretical underpinnings to in-depth case studies of major U.S. protest movements, spanning civil rights, labor rights, environmental protection, and anti-war activism. It employs a rigorous analytical framework to compare different movements, drawing conclusions about protest's role in American society. By incorporating primary sources and quantitative data, "Protest Movements" offers a balanced, data-informed perspective, making it valuable for anyone interested in American history, political science, and the ongoing struggle for social justice.

    Marking fifty years of the founding of an LGBTQ rights movement in Ireland, Reeling in the Queers explores the lesser-known stories of the fight for LGBTQ rights since 1974, beyond decriminalisation and Marriage Equality. From 1990s boy bands to the AIDS priest, Fr Bernárd Lynch, from the Belfast Lesbian Line to proud parenting, from the earliest Pride events to the last days of Alternative Miss Ireland, fourteen distinct moments map the changing social and cultural landscape of Ireland.
    These stories, from across the island of Ireland – and further afield – celebrate a strong community and its allies, and speak across the generations. Together, they tell a new story of the gains, losses, devastation and community rising from the ashes of defeat. It is a hugely enjoyable and insightful read for both those who lived through this movement and for those who enjoy its benefits today.
    Drawing from oral history as well as archives, Reeling in the Queers brings even more to life the great big queer tapestry in Ireland. Queer history in Ireland is Irish history and acknowledging and celebrating the light and the dark of it protects all of our futures as much as our pasts.
