The role played by social movements and alternative politics in developing countries
The role played by social movements
Social movements are obligated to reconstruct the possible niches and their restrictions. The only perception presents, according to van Vliet et al. (2011), the social movements’ role acts as a schema based on transforming the existing societal order. The existing order is reflected in the constructs of inequality and poverty. The relationship between power and society makes up a scorecard in the exploration of challenges about social movements. It is essential to say that social movement does not take part in the identification of being poor as a grievance, but the merging of the two constructs defines the framework of the policies.
The social movement alternative in politics in developing countries
The social movement plays a part in shaping the political contours to help build a good memory and a brighter future (Burnell et al., 2017). Emerging countries are identified as mapped, and their exclusion from the benefits is considered the root problem. Therefore, the challenge created politically is the critical consciousness of the people on the constructs of oppression. The existing threats such as poverty theorizes the factors linking the people and politics.
The alternative practice, as projected in the political roles, brings about the fundamentals of development. The social movement brings about the fragility of the social order through politics. Poverty and inequality are the primary methodologies for development, and therefore its reconstruction through alternative politics will push for representation, internal democracy and resource distribution. The ambiguity in social improvement is observed in the development perceptions.
