Partisan Publics by Ann Mische
During the 1980s and 1990s, Brazil struggled to rebuild its democracy after 20 years of military dictatorship, experiencing financial crises, political protest and electoral contention. This work argues that youth activists of various stripes played a vital role, contributing new forms of political talk and action to Brazil's emerging democracy.-

Honorable Mention for the 2009 Book Award, Section on Political Sociology, American Sociological Association Partisan Publics is a remarkable bookIt will make a mark in sociology, political science, and Latin American studies. It is smartly written, subtle, and packs an important theoretical punch.--Gianpaolo Baiocchi, Mobilization I found Mische's qualitative analyses particularly enlightening and refreshing... This book is a valuable addition to the social movements literature, as well as several allied literatures.--D. B. Tindall, Canadian Journal of Sociology Partisan Publics is based on a truly multimethod research design... By threading narratives of individual activists through the book, Mische effectively uses the individual biographies to illuminate the overall movement and national history... There is much to be gained by comparing Mische's findings to classical classical research in the social movement's literature.--Catherine Corrigall-Brown, Contemporary Sociology
