Description
Social movements eventually decline for one or more of many reasons. Sometimes they achieve their goals and naturally cease because there is no more reason to continue. More often, however, they decline because they fail. Sociologists identify several types of social movements just as to the nature and extent of the change they seek. This typology helps us understand the differences among the many kinds of social movements that existed in the past and continue to exist today. One of the most common and important types of social movements is the reform movement, which seeks limited, though still significant, changes in some aspect of a nation’s political, economic, or social systems. In the ongoing process of social transformation, new identities are often constructed. While existing identities may mutate or transform, some might even be rendered obsolete. The book endeavours to provide all requirements of students and teachers to enable them to achieve success in social work and related activities.
