Alberto Melucci brings an original perspective to research on collective action, emphasizing the role of culture and making telling connections with the experience of the individual in postmodern society. The focus is on the role of information in a world both fragmented and globalized, and topics addressed include political conflict, feminism, ecology, identity politics, power and inequality. The book builds on the author's Nomads of the Present (1989), and is a companion volume to The Playing Self (CUP, 1996).

Although he is generally recognized as one of the leading analysts of contemporary social movements, few of Alberto Melucci's writing writings on the subject have been published in English. Nomads of the Present makes available for the first time in English a coherent and representative sample of Melucci's most important essays. This synthesis of his work on social movements is no mere collection of previously published essays; each chapter draws on the author's work in several different places to present his evaluation of Western theories on social movements supported by both theoretical and empirical research.
