Sidney Tarrow is Emeritus Maxwell M. Upson Professor of Government at Cornell University and Adjunct Professor at the Cornell Law School. His recent books include Power in Movement, 3rd ed (2011), War, States, and Contention (2015), and The Resistance: The Dawn of the Anti-Trump Opposition Movement (co-edited with David S. Meyer, 2018).

• Introduction; 1. Movements and Parties in Contentious Politics; Part I. The 'Party Period': 2. Mass Politics in the Civil War Crucible; 3. The Agrarian Revolt, Populism, and the Gilded Age Party System; Part II. The Transitional Period: 4. Women, War, and the Vote; 5. Labor and Civil Rights From the New Deal to the War on Poverty; Part III. Hollowing Parties in a Movement Society: 6. The Long New Right; 7. The Hybridization of the Party System; Part IV. Contemporary Conjunctions: 8. Trumpism and the Movements He Made; 9. Learning About America From Comparison.

'In this trailblazing synthesis, one of the great scholars of 'contentious politics' sweeps across American history to unpack the complex interactions of political movements and political parties. Tarrow uncovers relationships that are highly variable, always fraught, and quite likely to determine the future course of American democracy. His assessment of how these engagements have changed over time offers a powerful, sobering commentary on the current critical juncture in American political development.'
