Preferred term

strategies and tactics in social movements  

Definition(s)

  • Are Western direct action–based social movements strategic? This is a complicated issue, but a basic answer is: to an extent, but not particularly, and this is not their core function. One could argue that if social movements became very strategic, they would cease to be social movements.
