This chapter discusses social movements and social change. In this chapter we learn about social movements:

Social movements are purposeful, organized groups that strive to work toward a common social goal. While most of us learned about social movements in history classes, we tend to take for granted the fundamental changes they caused —and we may be completely unfamiliar with the trend toward global social movements. But from the antitobacco movement that has worked to outlaw smoking in public buildings and raise the cost of cigarettes, to political uprisings throughout the Arab world, movements are creating social change on a global scale.

There are different forms of social movements.Pick one of the following types of social movements, define it and then give two examples of that type of social movement and what the impact of such a movement can do to our culture:

• 
  Reform Movements
  


• 
  Revolutionary Movements
  


• 
  Religious/Redemptive Movements
  


• 
  Alternative Movements
  


• 
  Resistance Movements
