Strikes, general assemblies and institutional insurgency; explaining the persistence of the Québec student movement
In this article published in Social Movement Studies, I look at the longetivity of the Québec student movement and its resisitance to the Iron Law of Oligarchy. A combination of organizational prowess, legal protections and adherence to a militant ideology known as ‘combative syndicalism’ helps to keep the organziations which comprise the Québec student movement radical and maintain their mobilization potential.

Liens sociaux, initiatives collectives et processus conflictuels; le cas des mobilisations contre la gentrification à Parc-Extension, Montréal.
This article, published in Recherches sociographiques, focuses on the micro-level processes in community organizations which can both help or hinder mobilization and the capacity to gain concessions from elites. Using ethnographic methods on two community housing groups in Montréal, we find that the creation of collective identity, emotional energy and the maintenance of social infrastructures are integral in maintaining movement unity, cohesion, avoiding burnout and more.

Classes, utopies réelles et transition : hommage à Erik Olin Wright
Le sociologue Erik Olin Wright a rédigé, au cours des quatre dernières décennies, de nombreux livres et articles caractérisés à la fois par une grande rigueur intellectuelle et une imagination remarquable sur des questions telles que les classes sociales, la démocratie et le renouvellement du projet émancipateur de la gauche à l’aube du XXIe siècle.

Au-delà de la social-démocratie
Dans un article paru en 2017, l’historien Robert Brenner souligne que la gauche semble paralysée par une double impasse. D’une part, on observe des mouve- ments sociaux qui, en aspirant à une autonomie complète par rapport aux institu- tions établies, se condamnent trop souvent à l’isolement politique.
