hi reader ,

Movement Groups: The groups which try to achieve a single objective within a limited time frame or a broad goal in the very long-term, are . known as Movement Groups.

. The two types of movement groups are1. Issue-specific: It seeks to achieve a single objective.

Generic: It seeks to achieve a broad goal.

Examples of Issue-specific Movement Groups:

People’s movement often describes many forms of collective action, like Narmada Bachao Andolan, Movement for Right to Information, Anti-liquor Movement in Andhra Pradesh by poor women, Environmental Movement, etc.

General/Generic movements/long term movements: These movements come into existence to achieve a broad goal in the long run. These involve more than one issues. There is no single organisation that controls or guides such movements.  Examples: The Environmental movement and women’s movement

i hope this helps

thank you
