Rajasthan Board RBSE Class 12 Political Science Notes Chapter 15 New Social Movements

Social movement is an active partner of democratic process which is complementary to public welfare efforts of a state.

Classification of Social Movements:
Social movements can be divided into four categories :

  • Revolutionary movements
  • Reformative movements
  • Corrective movements
  • Alternative movements
  • Revolutionary movements are supporters of radical change in the established social norms and institutions. They may be violent also like Naxalite Movement and Leftists Movement.
  • Reformative movements are advocates of gradual reform in the prevalent disparities and social problems. For this, they generally take the support of constitutional and parliamentary traditions.
  • Corrective movements are centered around a particular individual or a problem. And they make efforts to get rid of that problem.
  • Supporters of alternative movements advocate for establishing a separate alternative by bringing in complete change in social and cultural system of a society.
  • Social movement is a conscious, collective and organised effort to establish a new system.
  • The aim of all such movements is to establish a social system based on social justice.
  • New social movements are inclined towards leftist ideology. Many times they have challenged the validity of state and rights of administration in the state.
  • New social movements are not completely separate from political power or ideology but have a clear opinion about them.
  • As against the Leftists’ ideology, many organizations like Banvasi Kalyan Parishad, Beti Bachao and Beti Parhao Andolan have given speed to the work of the state at the social level. They have done it without challenging the validity and role of the rule of the state. Hence, this stream of movement has emerged as the ideology of creative development.

New Social Movements : The main active new social movements in India are – Peasants Movements, Labour Movements, Women Empowerment Movements, Movements against Development Hazards etc.

  • Peasants Movements became more important after elite capitalism and globalization which started after Blind Industrialization of 1991.
  • The aim of Peasants Movements is to protect the Indian interest during the times of open market systems of globalization and privatization.
  • Traditional labour movement which was limited to the Leftists’ groups only, had confined itself to the groups bargaining with the governments and industrial institutions. In the new age of globalization and liberalization, for the protection of the interests of labourers in the service sector and industrial sectors, the movements of organizations like Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh, Swadeshi Jagaran Manch are also remarkable.
  • The concept of women empowerment remained influenced by the Western concept of feminism for a long time.
  • At present several groups and movements have carried out many successful movements aimed at women empowerment. The name of Rashtriya Sevika Samiti is at the forefront.
  • Some dangerous results of development are displacement of people due to construction of dams on the rivers or due to other projects, environmental degradation and river water disputes etc.
