Document Summary
Final: 35 mc, 6 short response questions. Insurgent consciousness: people are upset about things; they know things are off; we have an awareness that there are problems going on. Organizational strength: a movement needs strong leaders to guide the members what to do. Political pluralism: there are a lot of choices in terms of what people can be politically. Fragmented leaders: political leaders are not on the same page on what to do with society. Access to political participation: this works better in more democratic societies; democratic societies have less stringent restriction. Support from the elites: having elite support your social movement will give you more success. Problems: does not consider the role of culture in supporting social movements. Adds to political process theory and mobilization theory. Injustice frames: issues are framed around the problem of injustice. Highlighting justice in the framing technique makes people feel like they need to get involved.
