La línea de investigación del Dr. Almeida se enfoca en la eficacia de la movilización colectiva.
Ha documentado de forma sistemática decenas de movimientos sociales a gran escala a través de los cuales, los ciudadanos se han movilizado para protegerse ante la pérdida de instancias relacionadas con sus necesidades básicas, como la atención de la salud, las pensiones, los servicios de agua y alcantarillados, los subsidios económicos y sociales, la salud ambiental y los derechos ciudadanos.
Sus artículos han aparecido en las revistas American Journal of Sociology , Social Forces, Social Problems , Mobilization, y en otros medios académicos.
Los libros de Almeida incluyen: Mobilizing Democracy: Globalization and Citizen Protest (Editorial Johns Hopkins University Press, 2014), con su edición en español denominada Neoliberalismo y movimientos populares en Centroamérica (UCA Editores, El Salvador, 2016); Waves of Protest: Popular Struggle in El Salvador, 1925-2005 (Editorial University of Minnesota Press, 2008), con su edición en español denominada Olas de movilización popular: Movimientos sociales en El Salvador 1925-2010 (UCA Editores, El Salvador, 2011); y Latin American Social Movements: Globalization, Democratization and Transnational Networks (co-complidador Hank Johnston, 2006).
