Theorizing Power, Difference and the Politics of Social Change: Problems and Possibilities in Assemblage Thinking

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This special issue of Studies in Social Justice explores the potential of assemblage thinking for apprehending contemporary social movements and the relations among them across global time and space. It grows out of a 2016 symposium sponsored by Brock University’s Social Justice Research Institute, entitled, Global Movement Assemblages: Continuities, Differences, and Connectivities. The symposium’s aim was to deploy assemblage thinking to make better sense of the wave of popular democratic uprisings since 2010, while also considering its risks, limitations and possibilities.
