Description

Description

Exploring the everyday experiences of activism, this book examines how individual characteristics and life events shape people's involvement in social movements.

Catherine Corrigall-Brown reveals that participation in politics is more common than often assumed, with two-thirds of Americans reporting some form of engagement. The author argues that understanding these varied pathways to activism can help us better comprehend the complexities of contentious politics.

By examining the context and period in which individuals engage with causes, Corrigall-Brown challenges traditional notions of activism and invites readers to consider a more nuanced picture of political participation over time.
