ECPR Conference 2005, Budapest, 8-10 September 2005
Section 16: Europeanisation, Governance and Political Changes: Empirical
Investigation and Theoretical Reflections
Panel 16-2: Social movements against globalisation and/or war: europeanized
movements?
CALL FOR PAPERS
Over the last years we have witnessed the emergence of social movements
which are (or seems to be) trans-national: the movements against neo-liberal
globalisation (or for alter-globalisation) and the anti-war movements are
the two most prominent examples.
The panel aims to deal with a number of theoretical questions concerning the
emergence and structuring of these movements. To name but a few:
• Issues of identity
• Issues of trans-national co-operation (both at the European and the
international level)
• Issues of resource mobilisation and organisation (both at the national and
the international level)
• Issues of individual participation and frame alignment
• Issues of networking
• Use of the internet and the Web
We welcome both theoretical and/or empirical research papers as well as
comparative and/or national case studies primarily along the previous lines
yet papers with other research approaches are also welcomed and would be
considered.
