1. Diani's theory system
   1. previous research does is not sufficient to describe the relational patterns between SoM and TUs
      1. focus on unions and social movements as different kinds of organizations
      2. focus on the differences in their membership, in their organizational properties, in their repertoires of action and in their relation to the polity.
   2. „modes of coordination”
      1. relational process
         1. of decision making
         2. allocation of resources
         3. elaboration of collective representation
         4. feelings of solidarity
         5. formation of obligations towards each other
         6. resource allocation
         7. boundary definition
      2. levels of analysis
         1. organizations
         2. individuals
         3. events
2. Organizational MoC
   1. resource allocation
      1. takes place within each union
      2. each union has it’s own recruiting strategies
      3. initiatives, campaigns, promotion takes place within each union
   2. boundary definition
      1. very little interaction between different unions
      2. boundaries of alligiance and identification coincide with those of the organization
   3. empirical cases
      1. „business unionism”
         1. a single union (monopolist) in a certain sector
         2. several unions in one sector that compete against each other
3. Social Movements MoC
   1. resource allocation
      1. takes place between different organzations
      2. individuals facilitate the circulation of resources between organizations
      3. involves „multiple actors with distinct identities and profiles”
   2. boundary definition
      1. individuals make a statement about the compatibility of groups in terms of multiple memberships
      2. the legitimacy of formal organizations is questioned
      3. interaction is more informal - „sense of belonging” vs. official membership
   3. empirically: two types of „social unionism”
      1. Type A
         1. first is focused on ties between different unions and sectors - identity between different organizations
      2. type b
         1. second is focused on situation when the actions and goals of unions and other social and political actors widely overlap
4. Coaltional MoC
   1. resource allocation
      1. dependant on an occasion (events!).
      2. As soon as a certain event or campaign is over resources are not shared anymore
   2. boundary definition
      1. no persistent, common identity necessary
      2. coalition is goal-dependant
      3. many such coalitions struggle to sustain beyond a short-term goal.
   3. empirical cases
      1. peace campaigns
         1. evolve during times of a direct threat and disappear as soon as the threat is no longer there
      2. protection of certain industries (coal-miners in Wales, automobile industry in Seattle (USA))
5. subcultural/communitarian MOC
   1. resource allocation
      1. individuals connect
         1. organizations
         2. events
      2. mobilization does not rely on organizations
      3. important mobilization resource: internet
   2. boundary definition
      1. „communities of like-minded individuals”
      2. dual identity of participants as victims/heroes
         1. precariat
         2. rebels
      3. lack of coherence
   3. empirical evidence
      1. informal groups that mobilize on labour related issues
         1. „Indignados”
         2. „EuroMayDay 2012”
