The current editor-in-chief is Cristina Flesher Fominaya (Aarhus University) . Previous editors-in-chief include and Kevin Gillan (University of Manchester), Graeme Hayes (Aston University) and Brian Doherty (Keele University).

In 2017 the journal was listed by Stefan Berger and Holger Nehrin, in their book The History of Social Movements in Global Perspective, as one of the "main academic journals" in the field of social movement studies, alongside Mobilization and the open access Interface: A Journal for and About Social Movements.^[1]
