Particular attention is paid to the charismatic Jose Bove, who has become the figurehead and focus of the campaign during this period. This account will be of particular interest to anthropologists and historians of contemporary France and Europe as well as students of protest and social movements, and of contemporary politics in general This revised edition documents one of the longest and most successful popular protests in modern French history - the Larzac movement.

Crisis and Commitment: The Life History of a French Social Movement - nieuw boek

2001, ISBN: 9789058231994

ID: 812778064

In an analysis that is engaged and yet clearheaded, Alexander Alland presents a social movement in which out-of-the-ordinary individuals, drawing from the image of southern French peasantry, invented a tradition. The ´peasants´ of the Larzac formed an innovative community still very much alive and attentive to the problems of rural development.´´ -Jean-Luc Bonniol of University of Aix, Marseille, France ´´There are few studies of the purposeful creation of a social movement, and by addressing this question, the authors raise some of the important implications of the Larzac case. In the many studies of protest and resistance, there is an increasing anthropological attention to issues of violence. Here, the focus on non-violence is key and interesting, for non-violence is less studied. And, consequently, less well understood.´´ -Elizabeth Evans of University of New Hampshire, Durham Crisis and Commitment: The Life History of a French Social Movement Buch (fremdspr.) Taschenbuch 01.11.2001 Bücher>Fremdsprachige Bücher>Englische Bücher, Routledge Chapman Hall, .200
