Abstract
New social movement theory (NSMT) emerged in the 1980s in Europe to analyze new social movements (NSMs) that appeared from the 1960s onward. These movements were seen as “new” in contrast to the “old” working‐class movement identified by Marxist theory as the major challenger to capitalist society. By contrast, NSMs are organized around gender, race, ethnicity, youth, sexuality, spirituality, countercultures, environmentalism, animal rights, pacifism, human rights, and the like.
