Volume seven, issue two of Interface, a peer-reviewed online
journal produced and refereed by social movement practitioners and engaged
movement researchers, is now out on the theme of “movements in post/socialisms”.
Interface is open-access (free), global and multilingual. Our overall aim
is to "learn from each other's struggles": to develop a dialogue
between practitioners and researchers, but also between different social
movements, intellectual traditions and national or regional contexts.
Like all issues of Interface, this issue is free and open-access.
You can download articles individually or a complete PDF of the issue (3.9 MB).
