Revolutions, social movements, religious and ethnic conflict,nationalism and civil rights, and transnational movements: these forms of contentiouspolitics combine in Charles Tilly's and Sidney Tarrow'sContentiousPolitics. The book presents a set of analytical tools and procedures for study,comparison, and explanation of these very different sorts of contention. Drawing on manyhistorical and contemporary cases, the book shows that similar principles describe andexplain a wide variety of struggles as well as many more routine forms of politics. Tillyand Tarrow have written the book to introduce readers to an exciting new program ofpolitical and sociological analysis.
