Question

What is the acknowledgement for popular struggles and movements?

Answer 1

The movement in nepal was to re-establish democracy in the country. The movement in bolivia was against one-specific policy of the government. But the movements saw people coming to the streets to voice their demands. The public demonstration finally resulted in the government agreeing to their demands.

We can draw 3 conclusions from these 2 examples :

Ø Democracy means involvement of every citizen in the decision making process. It is possible that sometimes decisions are made through consensus and do not involve any conflict. But sometimes decisions made are not in everybody’s interest. Some people or some groups might feel that a particular decision is against their interests. This involves conflict between groups. There is a conflict between those who are in power4 & those who want to get power.



Ø Most of the conflicts see mass mobilization. All the people came together to voice their demands. Sometimes these conflicts are solved through existing parliament or judiciary, the solution of the conflict comes from people themselves.



Ø Some new political organizations get formed at the time of conflicts. There is spontaneous public participation also, but the political organizations organise the mass protest. These political organizations make the public protest more effective.

Answer 2

Popular struggle and movements paved way for the attaining the freedom and walking away from the harsh regime of the colonialists and their selfish leadership procedures, it is through this struggle that our nation achieved this freedom therefore it should be highly acknowledged that the struggle led to an achievement we had ever dreamt of.
