Answer 2

Explanation:

The Tea Party is essentially a grassroots movement with no specific center of leadership

(Courser, 2010). It has no defining class or level of education characteristics that set it apart.

Indeed, apart from its over-representation of whites within the movement and its

overwhelmingly conservative ideology, the movement is fairly representative demographically

and socially of the nation at large. Its main goals, along with its lack of unified leadership, make

it a decentralized grassroots level social movement.

After discussing the Tea Party’s definitions, I will introduce the two theoretical

frameworks, Political Process Theory and Issue Evolution that are commonly applied by

sociologists and political scientists when analyzing social movements. I will use the insights

provided by these theories when discussing the Tea Party and placing it into perspective of other

historical social movements. I will be using Tarrow’s definition of a social movement as the

foundation for this discussion:

“contentious politics is triggered when changing political opportunities

and constraints create incentives for social actors who lack resources on

their own. They contend through known repertoires of

contention…when backed by dense social networks and galvanized by

culturally resonant, action-oriented symbols, contentious politics leads to

sustained interaction with opponents. The result is a social movement”

(Tarrow, 2, 1998).

This broad definition as a starting point will be useful because it lays out the general foundation

of what makes a social movement, but leaves enough flexibility to apply the definition to

different cultural and political norms of specific movements.

Furthermore, I will work to integrate the themes of Political Process and Issue Evolution

theories, making the case that despite different disciplinary origins and perspectives they are not

contradictory schools of thought, but rather complementary ideas that in many cases actually use

different words and ideas to define the same concepts.
