Using some of the conceptual tools from the critical study of religion – namely, problematising the distinction between the ‘secular’ and the ‘religious’ – it analyzes a sample of articles within the journals Social Movement Studies and Mobilization between 2010 and 2020 that deal with a broad range of religious, spiritual, and ‘religion-like’ or ‘secular sacred’ phenomena. I find three key trends within the data: social movements literature has a narrow construction of what constitutes ‘religion’; those things designated ‘religious’ are often instrumentalized in service to ‘political’ ends; and social movement scholars are more likely to study conservative and extreme politics where it intersects with groups considered ‘religious’ than with those considered ‘secular.’ The article invites scholars of social movements to consider how particular conceptions of both ‘religion’ and ‘politics’ are naturalised within the field.KEYWORDS: Religionsocial movement theorysecular sacredpolitics Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsRosemary HancockRosemary Hancock is Associate Director of the Institute for Ethics and Society at the University of Notre Dame Australia and Convener of the Institute’s Religion, Culture and Society Research Focus Area.

Now, ten years later, we look back on the protests and their legacy. While the protests started in May 2013 as a response to the Taksim Project, which aimed to remove Gezi Park, they brought together thousands of people, including many who were protesting for the first time, to voice their opposition to then Prime Minister Erdoğan and his policies. Participants were initially held together by their opposition to Erdoğan, but soon overarching identities emerged that increased the connections between groups and created a solidarity that continued, in many cases, for years. In this piece we discuss the events that led up to the Gezi Park protests, the impact on its participants, and the outcome and legacy that they left behind. While the sociopolitical landscape has changed a great deal in the last ten years, the impact of the Gezi Park protests on Turkish society and culture remains.KEYWORDS: Gezi ParkİstanbulprotestsolidarityrepressionGezi spirit Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.

{"title":"Unity through separation: spatial divisions and intra-movement relations in Lebanon’s October Uprising","authors":"Anne Kirstine Rønn","doi":"10.1080/14742837.2023.2267998","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/14742837.2023.2267998","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTWithin the field of social movement studies, scholars have devoted increasing attention to how protesters reclaim and organize public spaces. Case studies reveal that protesters often split up larger reclaimed spaces by drawing internal, sometimes invisible, boundaries. So far, however, the subdivision of protest spaces remains an under-theorized phenomenon. Through a case study of Lebanon’s 2019 October Uprising, this article contributes to disentangling how spatial subdivisions emerge and shape relations between protesters. The study relies on fieldwork observations and interviews with 51 protesters from Lebanon’s second-largest city, Tripoli, where the protest space was divided into three main zones, reflecting social, ideological, and tactical fault lines in the city’s uprising. By employing Löw’s concepts of spacing and synthesis, it analyzes how Tripoli’s protesters came to associate these three zones with diverging identities, ideologies, and tactical orientations, while also connecting them together as functional parts of the larger movement. Although the separation of Tripoli’s protest space did not alleviate disagreements and conflicts, the article finds that subdivisions facilitated a thin form of order and helped protesters make sense of their internal differences.KEYWORDS: Social movementsspacespatial organizationLebanon Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. The continuation of Tripoli’s protests has been attributed to several factors, including the absence of violent attacks by alleged supporters of Hezbollah and Amal Movement, which deterred protest participation in Beirut and other parts of the country. Moreover, while the COVID-19 lockdown led protests to die out elsewhere in Lebanon, some Tripolitan citizens defied the curfews and took to the street, due to the economic situation in the city, which has deteriorated severely during the past years’ financial collapse in Lebanon.2.

We identify three main aspects that drove and sustained this wave of societal pushback amidst institutional decay. We first discuss how democratic backsliding shapes the spread of mass mobilization in polities that are seen as regulated by the interest of power elites and their machinery of coercion and adaptation. We then critically examine the continued relevance of protest leadership by highlighting the relational dynamics between organizing with and without (formal) organizations. We further examine how network and coalition building in political and civil societies shaped the long-term trajectory of movement organizations to facilitate large-scale protests at critical times. This review draws on the contributions to this special issue and the recent literature on democratic backsliding and political activism. It provides a holistic survey of defensive mobilizations and the interactive mechanisms among the masses in the region and beyond.","PeriodicalId":47507,"journal":{"name":"Social Movement Studies","volume":"46 1","pages":"607 - 627"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82584365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
