SOCIAL CHANGE

What changes can an individual make? Compare these views: Never ever depend on governments or institutions to solve problems. All social change comes from the passion of individuals. Margaret Mead One person cannot solve the problems of the whole country. Gao Ying (Ai Weiwei’s mother) What changes can an individual make?

DEFINING SOCIAL CHANGE Alterations in the way a society is organized and in the beliefs and behaviours of the people who live in it. May include changes to social institutions (e.g., the family), in social relations (e.g. between different groups), in social behaviours (e.g. voting patterns), and in ideology (e.g. individualism to collectivism)

SOCIAL CHANGE… is inevitable can be slow or fast, by force or by choice, good or bad may create stability or be destablizing; it may be long-lasting or short-lived

Who do you believe has changed the world? Think of a person you believe has brought social change to our society, another society or the global society. What did they do to bring about this change? What qualities did they have? Was their social change positive or negative?

10 COMMANDMENTS FOR CHANGING THE WORLD 1. You gotta believe 2. Challenge authority 3. Know the system 4. Take action 5. Use the media 6. Build alliances 7. Apply constant pressure 8. Teach alternatives 9. Learn from your mistakes 10. Take care of yourself and each other

Is this a tool for change?

LEADERSHIP Leadership is one of the most important components for social change to occur. A leader with charisma is key to bring about social change (large vision, magnetic style, strong popular support, etc…).

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. 1. Which of the commandments did he use? 2. Was he successful? Why or why not? 3. How long did it take for his social change to occur? 4. What speeds up social change? What slows it down?

George Dey Said: “It is not enough to believe in something. You must become an activist. If you believe but do not do anything about it you are really doing nothing.” DO YOU AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT?

Definition: ACTIVIST Someone who takes action towards something they believe in (a cause or social problem)
