摘要：The aim of this article is to shed light onto a fundamental issue to the study of collective action: the centrality of moral issues to the explanation of patterns characterizing the collective action of New Social Movements. First, we review the accounts that social movement theory has given of the motivations for collective action. Second, we analyze the way in which formal theories of collective action have tried to explain the role of moral incentives. We then show the difficulties met by this kind of theories given their dependence on instrumental motives. Next we introduce a selection of recent theoretical attempts to overcome the dependency of formal theories to instrumental motives. We conclude by underlining the importance of a broader formal theory of collective action capable of realistically accommodating moral motives.
