Description

"A first-class account of one of the most neglected revolutions of recent times.... A meticulous analysis of the process of popular mobilization and political radicalization."--D.L. Raby, Science and Society "Of particular value in this analysis of neighborhood movements, worker control, and land occupations is Hammond's perspective on the relationship between consciousness and collective action."--Rick Fantasia, Contemporary Sociology "By focusing attention on the worker and neighborhood movements mobilizing the mass of the Portuguese citizenry for the first time in Portuguese history, Hammond captures the essence of the radical phase of the revolution.... Much of what is dealt with in Hammond's book concerns social history many would like to forget. Yet this is a story, a body of experience, that is extraordinarily rich and important."--Lawrence S. Graham, Social Science Quarterly
