Reviews

This volume makes three contributions that make it a valuable read for movement scholars. First, it successfully sues the case of the feminist (anti-) domestic violence movement to highlight the problems of the tradeoffs that inevitably face activistsnegotiating the state. Second, it turns our attention to movement strategy, which has been insufficiently addressed in the social movement literature. Finally, it explicitly addresses the effects of a social movement on policy formation, an area of inquiry badly neglected by scholars of both movements and policy making.

This book is a model of policy analysis: it is clearly written, well documented throughout, free of political rhetoric...
