[Air-l] new vs old activism

[John McNutt]

Kevin,

I think it depends on how far you want to go back.  I would suggest looking
at Pippa Norris' Democratic Phoenix.  John McNutt

Subject: [Air-l] new vs old activism

Can anyone direct me to significant literature regarding what
constitutes old political activism vs new activism--particularly insofar
as its organisation, structure and implementation is concerned?  Of
interest is how (and whether) the Internet plays a role in what some are
calling a new (global?) activism.
 
Alternatively, if you think there's nothing particularly new about
activism, I'd be interested in that as well...
 
I realise this is a fairly broad question, but your responses needn't
be similarly expansive--just a quick thought here or there would be
greatly appreciated!
