Political Sentiments and Social Movements by Claudia Strauss

This unique volume is about how ordinary people construct political meanings, form political emotions and identities, and become involved in or disengaged from political contests. Drawing on psychological anthropology, it illustrates the complexities of political subjectivities through engaging personal stories that complicate our understanding of the relationship between culture and politics. Chapters examine the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street in the United States, third gender activism in India, Rastafari in Jamaica, Courage to Refuse in Israel, the environmental movement in the U.S., Salafi movements in northern Nigeria, post-socialist labor politics in Romania, and anti-immigrant activism in Denmark.

Claudia Strauss is an English adjunct professor at Albright College in Reading, Pennsylvania. She works with people who have attention deficit disorder (ADD) and learning difficulties. She resides in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania.
