    Abstract

    Looking at networks of civic organizations in Glasgow, I try to single out social movement dynamics from a broader set of collaborative interactions and shared memberships between organizations mobilizing on environmental, ethnic and minority, and social exclusion issues. In doing so, I also draw attention to the persistent usefulness of the concept of social movement, which recent work by Tilly (McAdam et al., 2001) seems to have placed in a less central position.
