Missouri State University’s Faculty Research Grant Committee announced that Dr. Indira Palacios’s research grant proposal, “How Grievances Matter: Student Movements in the Southern Cone” had been funded.
This ambitious study offers a systematic, cross-county comparison of student movements over time. Building upon her previously collected data but relying on personal interviews with activists, politicians, and policy makers, this study will will make up for theoretical gaps in the existing literature within the broader context of social movement theory.
