Thirty-five essays from the literature, groundbreaking theories to very recent case studies, show the evolution of a dynamic scholarship--theoretical foundations, debates that shape further inquiry, critical studies that illustrate concepts. Chapter introductions note key points, connections, and conflicts.

Drawing on many recent and historical movements, the essays explore strategies that create leaders, inspire followers, confront power, attract support, and adapt to changing conditions—or that silence dissent, suppress uprising, or discredit protesters.
