'A diverse, incisive set of essays all focused on a single theme: how collective violence arises from and impacts social change. We learn from each, but the lessons of the whole are much greater than the sum of its parts. The field of collective action moves up a large notch.' Bert Useem, Purdue University, USA 'This important new volume brings together an impressive array of scholars to tackle the thorny and neglected issue of social movements and violence. In topics ranging from turn of the century union violence against scabs, to modern day youth riots in Athens, from terrorist groups in Germany to revolutionary movements in Thailand and Iran, the authors explore the interplay of emotions, power and strategy. Most critically, they place violence firmly in its relational and situational context.' Cathy Lisa Schneider, American University, Washington, DC, USA
