Popular Intellectuals and Social Movements : Framing Protest in Asia, Africa, and Latin America (International Review of Social History Supplements)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
All forms of popular protest include a specific category of 'popular intellectual' who reflects social reality. This volume looks at the experiences of popular intellectuals in non-western societies, operating within social-movement networks that link local, regional, and international arenas, and connect to a global flow of ideas. Eight case studies on different societies in twentieth-century Asia, Africa, and Latin America highlight specific activist intellectuals and their role in collective action.
