Contribution short abstract:
As academics working with and learning from the social movements who are part of this roundtable, in this contribution we talk about what we have learned from them, and why we think this is important.
Contribution long abstract:
As engaged scholars, with a long interest in social movements, we have been working with some of the social movements who form part of this roundtable discussion over a number of years. We have learned a great deal from our interaction with them, and have worked together to begin to theorise this learning. In this contribution, we discuss what we mean by the concept 'subaltern social movement', and why we feel that the learning from such social movements in critical in current times.
