{"product_id":"protesting-gender-anna-lavizzari-9780367279134","title":"Protesting Gender: The LGBTIQ Movement and its Opponents in Italy","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrawing on fieldwork conducted in Italy among political activists of the LGBTIQ movement and the traditionalist movement during the \"anti-gender\" campaign, this book provides a dynamic picture of their sustained interactions. Through an analysis of the contentious strategies, discourses, and performances of both the LGBTIQ and the traditionalist movements from a strategic interactionist perspective, it considers the key actors involved in this struggle over normative and social change, showing how activists on both sides are confronted with different dilemmas, influencing each other's choices, practices and identities at the individual and collective levels. Approaching social movements as interactive processes, the author deploys the concepts of social performance and gender performativity to illustrate the ways in which activists interact with and within gender norms, and how they reproduce or contest gender hierarchies as they protest, thus revealing the centrality of gender to the analysis of processes of recruitment and mobilization, strategies, frames and forms of organization. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology and political science with interests in social movements and gender.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anna Lavizzari\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367279134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367279134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/11\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2021","brand":"Anna Lavizzari","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44058149028095,"sku":"9780367279134","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9078bad0-53ed-4a78-9f78-bdbe71c041e7.jpg?v=1685050925","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/protesting-gender-anna-lavizzari-9780367279134","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
