About this product

Product Information

In the late 1980s, after a decade spent engaged in more routine interest-group politics, thousands of lesbians and gay men responded to the AIDS crisis by defiantly and dramatically taking to the streets. But by the early 1990s, the organization they founded, ACT UP, was no more--even as the AIDS epidemic raged on. Weaving together interviews with activists, extensive research, and reflections on the author's time as a member of the organization, Moving Politics is the first book to chronicle the rise and fall of ACT UP, highlighting a key factor in its trajectory: emotion. Surprisingly overlooked by many scholars of social movements, emotion, Gould argues, plays a fundamental role in political activism. From anger to hope, pride to shame, and solidarity to despair, feelings played a significant part in ACT UP's provocative style of protest, which included raucous demonstrations, die-ins, and other kinds of street theater. Detailing the movement's public triumphs and private setbacks, Moving Politics is the definitive account of ACT UP's origin, development, and decline as well as a searching look at the role of emotion in contentious politics.

I have a problem with this book and seller. I contacted the seller and never heard back. While the book is in good condition, I am upset because I paid over $13 for a book whose cover and back read “NOT FOR SALE”. I planned to give the book as a gift and now I can’t. After receiving the book I checked the picture and “NOT FOR SALE” was there but visible only by enlarging the picture. I want to return the book and buy one suitable for a gift but the seller has not responded.
