Dear Social Movement Scholars: You may be interested in the contents of the next issue of Mobilization, volume 9, no. 1. It's a very strong issue, with a provocative theoretical essay as lead article, and important empirical studies of framing, anti-globalization mobilization, and identity in social movements. Below I list the articles. Also included in this issue is the book review section, edited by Dan Myers, and a special review section of social movement and collective behavior textbooks. The next issue will be mailed out to subscribers in a few weeks.
