Description

Examines sociological debates about social movements in Australia and elsewhere. The relation of social movements to social change is explored partly through critical analyses of data on a social movement of students choice. Movements chosen may range from Feminism, the Gay and Lesbian movements, Environmental, Land Rights or Labour movements to fundamentalists, or more organised lobby-groups or associations. Involves a research project and consideration of definitional and theoretical issues.
