Activism is a policy of vigorous action, especially in social and political spheres. Youth have become more involved in political and social activism.

The term "activism" is used synonymously with protest or dissent. Activism can have many political hues. Activism can bring about social change, political change, or what you will.

There are many new terms for various methods or media for activism like Electronic Civil Disobedience and Hacktivism. Computerized activism started in the mid 1980s. The first version of PeaceNet appeared in early 1986. PeaceNet enabled political activists to communicate with one another across international borders with relative ease and speed.

by Carrie N. Baker.
Abstract: A close look at the history of the emergence of sexual harassment activism reveals a diverse group of people involved in conceptualizing and theorizing sexual harassment, and creating legal prohibitions against it.

American Indian Activism - American Indian Activism - Alcatraz to the Longest Walk
Edited by Troy Johnson, Joane Nagel, and Duane Champagne
The American Indian occupation of Alcatraz Island was the catalyst for a more generalized movement in which Native Americans from across the country have sought redress of grievances, attempting to right the many wrongs committed against them.
In this volume, some of the dominant scholars in the field chronicle and analyze Native American activism of the 1960s and 1970s. Much of what is included here began as a special issue of the American Indian Culture and Research Journal; the introduction has been extensively modified and one chapter deleted. Importantly, the new first chapter provides extended background and historical analysis of the Alcatraz takeover and discusses its place in contemporary Indian activism. - press.uillinois.edu/f97/johnson.html

Black Pentecostal Activism

Understanding the "new" black Pentecostal activism: lessons from ecumenical urban ministries in Boston
Sociology of Religion, Spring, 1999 by Omar M. McRoberts
Sociologists of religion have argued for some time that churches representing theologically conservative faiths are least likely to engage in political and social activism (Guest and Lee 1987; Hoge and Faue 1973; Kanagy 1992; Hoge et al. 1978). Furthermore, scholars have assumed that if such churches did act, their involvement would be limited to politically conservative causes, such as the New Religious Right (Tamney and Johnson 1990; Johnson 1967). Yet in the last three decades black Pentecostal churches, a most theologically conservative set of institutions, have become more involved in political and social activism. Specifically, they have joined and established local community organizing and economic development programs historically dominated by Catholics and theologically liberal Protestants.(1) In fact, in numerous poor inner city neighborhoods, black Pentecostal churches are key advocates for political, economic, and social change. This new, extroverted activity differs from the more common, introverted forms of black Pentecostal social intervention, which focus almost exclusively on the needs of current church members.- findarticles.com/cf_dls/m0SOR/1_60/54422499/p1/article.jhtml

BJS Online - Half-belief and the paradox of ritual instrumental activism: a theory of modern superstition - Colin Campbell - The fact that superstition persists in modern industrial societies is identified as a continuing problem for sociology. The predominant response to date has been to view this phenomenon as an evolutionary 'survival' and to invoke psychological theories which neglect both culture and history. However, such theories necessarily involve presenting superstition as equivalent to magic whilst failing to address the nature of modern superstition. Consequently an attempt is made to develop a more adequate theoretical perspective, one which gives due weight to the distinctive characteristics of modern superstitious belief and practice. This involves recognizing the central importance of the value of instrumental activism in contemporary society and the tension that this necessarily creates in individuals where the 'rational' response is inactivity and resignedness. Engaging in acts which mimic instrumentality under those circumstances, whilst at the same time 'dis-believing' that their actions can, in reality, affect the outcome, is thus identified as essentially a ritual response, one which serves to re-affirm the individual's basic commitment to agency and an optimistic, activist intervention in the world. Such a perspective is seen as addressing the distinctive features of modern superstition without the necessity of representing it as equivalent to magic or invoking a-historical theories of 'human nature'.
