Reviews
Group Politics and Social Movements in Canadais a must read for scholars interested in social change and social movements in Canada. It provides a rich analysis of the historical development and contemporary challenges facing key Canadian social movements, and is framed well by Professor Smith's sophisticated analysis of different lenses on social movements.--Susan Phillips, Carleton University This book is a joy in the classroom, and the second edition is fresh and up-to-date. Miriam Smith has again pulled together experts on a diverse set of social movements, including coverage of Idle No More and Occupy. There is no book in political science or sociology that covers the Canadian trajectories of the range of movements found in this book.--Peter Graefe, McMaster University Miriam Smith's unique and comprehensive volume brings together a cast of leading experts to address a diverse array of groups and social movements, in the process opening up new ground for understanding collective mobilization historically and today. Students and scholars alike will benefit from the fresh understanding given to power, politics, and change in Canada.--Yasmeen Abu-Laban, University of Alberta
