> SOCIAL MOVEMENTS CONFERENCE - FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS
> abstracts due by 31st January 2005
>
>
> From 1995 to 2003, Manchester Metropolitan University hosted a series
> of very successful annual international conferences on 'ALTERNATIVE
> FUTURES and POPULAR PROTEST'. The Tenth conference, planned for April
> 2004, had to be cancelled.
>
>
> We're very happy to announce that the Tenth conference will now be
> held, between Wednesday 30th March and Friday 1st April 2005.
>
>
> The Conference rubric remains as in previous years. The aim is to
> explore the dynamics of popular movements, along with the ideas which
> animate their activists and supporters and which contribute to shaping
> their fate.
>
>
> Reflecting the inherent cross-disciplinary nature of the issues,
> previous participants (from over 40 countries) have come from such
> specialisms as sociology, politics, cultural studies, social
> psychology, economics, history and geography. The Manchester
> conferences have also been notable for discovering a fruitful and
> friendly meeting ground between activism and academia.
>
>
> CALL FOR PAPERS
