Moving the Social 71 - 2024
Description:... The essays in this Special Issue range from analyses of current political, economic, social and ecological situations, to ways of life and crises, including their causes and consequences, to case studies of civil society initiatives, social movements and the process of becoming a political subject, to an examination of movement parties. The common thread running through the essays is the reference to Brand's and Wissen's concepts of multiple crises and imperial ways of life and production. The aim is to offer a perspective on alternative interpretations of the crises and the activities surrounding them, including concepts for solutions and strategies, as well as on relevant, innovative, diverse practices and measures being employed by initiatives and movements.
