This book spans historical perspectives, current contexts, and the most current scholarly literature to interrogate how embodied activisms are read, performed, understood, and actualized. The studies in this volume address current, critical issues such as police accountability activism, the climate crisis, environmental concerns, and protests of Supreme Court confirmation hearings. Chapters analyze a wide range of nonviolent mobilization tactics, including silent protests, embodied witnessing, leisure spectacle demonstrations, performance art and other forms of creative practice, and rallies. Analyses engage with aspects of intersectionality in activism and critique diverse modes of embodied resistance in locations including East Central Europe, the Americas, and the Mediterranean region.--Publisher website. 650 0 $a Social movements. 650 0 $a Social action. 650 0 $a Political participation. 650 0 $a Pressure groups. 650 6 $a Mouvements sociaux. 650 6 $a Action sociale. 650 6 $a Participation politique. 650 6 $a Groupes de pression. 650 7 $a social movements. $2 aat 650 7 $a Political participation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069386 650 7 $a Pressure groups. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01075954 650 7 $a Social action. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122251 650 7 $a Social movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122657 700 1 $a Newsom, Victoria A., $e editor. 700 1 $a Lengel, Lara Martin, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Embodied activisms $d Lanham, Maryland : Lexington Books, 2022 $z 9781793616531 $w (DLC) 2021048350 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517010438.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4F09A528DCB911EC8436229451ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
