Social movements perspectives on the water charges protests

A nice article on the water charges movement here, related to some of the arguments made in this podcast - and a good antidote to the neverending attempts to move from the mass popular participation of social movements to the comfort zone of political parties.

Making our own history

Laurence Cox and Alf Nilsen launched their book We Make Our Own History: Marxism and Social Movements in the Twilight of Neoliberalism at the Historical Materialism conference in London (November 2014), with responses from Colin Barker, Subir Sinha and Lesley Wood. You can see the full video on the Pluto Press website - the video quality isn't ideal but the audio is fine. There's also a session with Laurence Cox for the International Sociological Association's social movements research committee on youtube - again the audio is better than the video!
