Reviews
"[A] detailed ethnographic study of the social movement 'scenes' in Stockholm, Goteborg, and Malmo in Sweden. Based on fieldwork conducted over several years, it is the kind of ethnographic work that allows for deep exploration of issues and people, and that uses that exploration to raise complex questions.... [I]t adds admirably to the large body of work on urban social movements, and is worth reading by those interested in dynamics and processes in such movements.... [T]his is a good book that should be of real interest to scholars who are interested in urban social movements, and those who simply want to read an interesting set of stories about these scenes." -- Journal of Urban Affairs, "Creasap examines an important issue in the social movement literature--the centrality of place for the rise and fall of social movements. Introducing the concept of social movement scenes, she theorizes their importance and the interplay between these scenes and the political economies of their cities. Moreover, Making a Scene engages in an interesting discussion of how gentrification contributes to both sharpening the grievances of urban activists and destroying the environment they need to survive and thrive." -- Walter J. Nicholls , Professor of Urban Planning and Public Policy at the University of California, Irvine, and author of Immigrant Rights Movement: The Battle over National Citizenship, "Beginning with a charming portrait of one small Swedish neighborhood, Kimberly Creasap demonstrates the power of the concept of a social movement 'scene,' a concentrated network of activists and the places they congregate. Scenes are not just a resource for politics; they are an accomplishment in their own right. Who really owns a city? And how?" -- James M. Jasper , author of The Art of Moral Protest: Culture, Biography, and Creativity in Social Movements, "Creasap's comparative analysis of autonomous movements across these three different urban spaces provides a nuanced contribution not just to social movement studies but to urban social science, as well.... Making a Scene provides important insights that will be invaluable for social movement scholars, political sociologists, and urban social scientists studying gentrification and neighborhood change." -- Mobilization, "A must-read on autonomous social movements resisting gentrification in Swedish cities that draws on a conceptual apparatus made up of centrality, concentration, and visibility. Making a Scene is rich in contextual detail, description, and, critically, a sense of hope for activists everywhere. Creasap puts the spatial into the social of social movement research and contributes to the rapidly growing literature on resistance in gentrification studies." -- Loretta Lees , Incoming Director of the Initiative on Cities at Boston University, and coauthor of Gentrification and Planetary Gentrification, "Creasap offers the reader ethnographic glimpses and comparisons of the local social movement scenes in Sweden's three major cities of Stockholm, Göteborg, and Malmö.... [Her] main argument serves as an important contribution to the scholarship on social movement scenes. This book also presents an important call for thinking more critically about spatiality in the sociology of social movements more generally." -- Social Forces, "This book contributes to the understanding of autonomist and anarchist movements in Sweden's three major cities.... Creasap's concise and clear writing style helps readers follow the storyline and makes the sociological picture of the activist scenes more palatable for a wider, non-academic audience. The book also enriches the literature by analysing urban activism and radical politics in Sweden at a very specific historical period.... [I]t represents a well-crafted research effort and offers important insights to consider when addressing theoretical questions at the intersection of urban sociology, urban movements, and far-left radical politics in the somewhat unique Swedish context." -- Acta Sociologica, "This slim sociological study provides welcome data on gentrification and oppositional social movements outside the US, while also providing a counterpoint to generalized readings of the overall success of the Swedish welfare state.... Summing Up: Recommended." -- Choice

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
