Reviews

Partisan Publics is a remarkable book. It 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
