In this edition a set of Supplementary Notes and Remarks has been added at the end grouped according to chapter Some of these call attention to subsequent developments others add further explanation or additional remarks Most of the remarks are accompanied by a briefly indicated proof which is sometimes different from the one given in the reference cited The list of references has been expanded to include many recent contributions but it is still not intended to be exhaustive John C Oxtoby Bryn Mawr April 1980 Preface to the First Edition This book has two main themes the Baire category theorem as a method for proving existence and the duality between measure and category The category method is illustrated by a variety of typical applications and the analogy between measure and category is explored in all of its ramifications To this end the elements of metric topology are reviewed and the principal properties of Lebesgue measure are derived It turns out that Lebesgue integration is not essential for present purposesthe Riemann integral is sufficient Concepts of general measure theory and topology are introduced but not just for the sake of generality Needless to say the term category refers always to Baire category it has nothing to do with the term as it is used in homological algebra

Cultural factors shape the symbolic environment in which contentious politics take place Among these factors collective memories are particularly relevant they can help collective action by providing symbolic material from the past but at the same time they can constrain peoples ability to mobilise by imposing proscriptions and prescriptions This book analyses the relationship between social movements and collective memories how do social movements participate in the building of public memory And how does public memory and in particular the medias representation of a contentious past influence strategic choices in contemporary movements To answer these questions the book draws its focus on the evolution of the representation of specific events in the Italian and Spanish student movements of the 1960s and 1970s Furthermore through qualitative interviews to contemporary student activists in both countries it investigates the role of past waves of contention in shaping the present through the publicly discussed image of the past
