Movement Power

A mass movement can mobilise around strategic campaigns with instrumental demands - and around prefigurative campaigns with symbolic demands.

A successful campaign needs unity in its aims and actions, but plurality and autonomy for its activists.

The movement power approach to building mass movements has many benefits - but also some problems. So how to proceed?

The hybrid model of mass organising is based on both the structure and momentum traditions. So what is the history of successful protest, and how can it inform our work today?

The hybrid organising model is formed from the DNA of its two parents – the structure and momentum traditions – which will ensure the success of its offspring.

A mass movement for climate action can be deployed though a cycle of momentum, organisational theorists explain.

How do we seed mass social movements that can avert cataclysmic climate breakdown?

The Pirate Party in Sweden codified activist organisational strategy and led the way to Extinction Rebellion's success.

We need a mass movement to ensure a just transition and prevent climate breakdown. But such contestations can go very wrong.

The people taking part in mass demonstrations for a ceasefire in Gaza and the strategic direct actions to stop climate breakdown are learning vital lessons from each other.
