This book is a straightforward exposition of the social-theoretical fields and problematic issues relating to contemporary social movements and identities. The issues important to 'new social movements' (identity, culture, diversity, power, and local activism) are examined by providing intelligible connections between the contrasting perspectives of critical theory and postmodern thought. Professor Su H. Lee analyzes the affinity between poststructuralist theories and new social movements in light of cultural multiplicity and social fragmentation, while questioning the political and ethical implications that arise from the political emblem of identity and difference. The overarching approach of Debating New Social Movements is both synthetic and analytic. It bridges disconnected themes under contrasting theoretical frameworks, and takes a stance from critical theory to expose significant shortfalls in the postmodern political and cultural thoughts on identity and social movements.

Su H. Lee is Assistant Professor of Sociology at Cameron University in Lawton, Oklahoma. His research interests combine social theories, social movements, and the sociology of culture. His current projects look at the social construction of meaning; critical theory of JYrgen Habermas; and the pragmatic-linguistic and social studies of intersubjectivity. His portfolio also includes the sociology of knowledge; social ethics; and substantive democracy and organizational forms in community based collective actions.
