Abstract:
|
This paper attempts to address the concept of state-oriented policy outcomes of social movements as collective benefits. By examining state policy regimes it may be possible to take the full range of state-oriented collective benefits that social movements can attain for their potential constituency. To examine policy regimes as outcomes of social movement, this paper uses fuzzy-set analysis to analyze the multiple and conjunctural causal combinations that led to advantageous state-level policy regimes for the organizations and the constituents of GLBT social movements and their respective countermovement. The roles of political opportunity structure, public opinion, and social movement activity are taken into account. Results indicate the importance of public opinion, SMOs that use institutionalized tactics, and the size of a movement’s potential constituency in shaping state level policy regimes. |
