Confronts the gulf between social movement theory and activism. This book exposes the frayed relations between activism and social movement scholarship, and examines the causes and consequences of this disconnect. It asserts that partnerships among scholars and activists benefit both academic inquiry and social change efforts.

Examines the impact of class status on an individual's participation or non-participation in the political process. Focusing on the relative absence of white working-class involvement in many contemporary US liberal and left social movements, this title goes straight to the source: members of the working class and activists in various movements.
