      ab: Part of a special issue on gender and social movements is presented. The writers discuss gender, class, and the interaction between social movements and analyze a strike by day care workers in West Berlin, Germany. They contend that the intersections among gender, class, and race make it difficult to assign political issues and identities to one social movement. They utilize the interaction between labor organizing and feminism to examine movement interaction at three levels: opportunity structure, organizing practices, and framing ideas. They contrast inclusive and exclusive forms of solidarity and their consequences for organizational practices using a case study of West Berlin day care workers who went on strike in the winter of 1989-90. They contend that the fact that this strike failed and received little support from either feminists or the labor movement can be attributed to the weakness of structural and organizational supports for frames favoring inclusive solidarity.
