- Double-weighted statement
- Ormrod’s single-authored monograph provides an extensive examination of the role of fantasy in social movements; it outlines and synthesises traditions, concepts and debates to elucidate the relationships between fantasy, reality, action, the unconscious and the collective. It meets the criteria for double-weighting in being a longer-form output that reflects a sustained research effort; in offering a substantial and original development of social movement studies and expanding notions of collective action in psychosocial theory; and in integrating a large body of material, from Weber and Freud through the new utopianists, to produce a novel framing of social movements in considerable depth.
