CONCEPT OF SOCIAL MOVEMENTS

Social movements can be thought of as organized

yet informal social entities that are engaged in an
extra- institutional conflict that is oriented towards a
goal which can be concrete and narrow policy or
aimed at cultural change (EBSCO Research Starters,
2009).
KIND'S OF SOCIAL MOVEMENTS
 ALTERNATIVE SOCIAL MOVEMENT'S
- Alternative movements are typically
focused on self-improvement and limited,
specific changes to individual beliefs and
behavior.

REDEMPTIVE SOCIAL MOVEMENT'S

-Redemptive movements try to cause total
change in specific individuals. They try to
change the individual's whole way of life.
 reformative social movement's
-A reformative social movement
advocates for minor changes instead
of radical changes.

REVOLUTIONARY SOCIAL MOVEMENT'S

-Revolutionary movements seek to
completely change every aspect of society—
their goal is to change all of society in a
dramatic way.
 STAGES OF SOCIAL
MOVEMENTS
One of the earliest scholars to study social movement
processes was Herbert Blumer, who identified four
stages of social movements’ lifecycles. The four
stages he described were: "social ferment,” “popular",
"excitement,” “formalization,” and "institutionalization”
EMERGENCE
The tendency for social movementsto
address a perceived socialproblem

Occurs as people think all is notwell

COALESCENCES
Discontent is no longer uncoordinated and individual; it
tends to become “focalized and collective”
Also, at this stage mass demonstrations may occur in
order to display the social movement’s power and to
make clear demands.
Defining itself and “going public”
BUREAUCRATIZATION

Movement becomes established

Organizing rationally to get job done
Tendency for a social movement to adoptthe
characteristics of bureaucratic organization to
achieve its goals
DECLINE
Decline "institutionalization”
it does not necessarily mean failure of social
movements as Miller (1999) argues that there are
four ways in which social movements can decrease
namely: Success, organized failure, Co-optation,
Repression
The tendency of social movements to fade in
power and significance
