B. EXTRINSICT ASPECT<br />

1. Social Movement<br />

“Gerakan sosial merupakan perilaku kolektif yang ditandai kepent<strong>in</strong>gan bersama<br />

dan tujuan jangka panjang, yaitu untuk mengubah ataupun mempertahankan<br />

masyarakat atau <strong>in</strong>stitusi yang ada di dalamnya. Ciri la<strong>in</strong> gerakan sosial adalah<br />

penggunaan cara yang berada diluar <strong>in</strong>stitusi yang ada”. (Sunarto, 2004: 199)<br />

As stated above, <strong>social</strong> <strong>movement</strong> is an on go<strong>in</strong>g goal directed effort to change<br />

<strong>social</strong> <strong>in</strong>stitution from <strong>the</strong> outside. It is <strong>of</strong>ten marked by an organized collective behavior<br />

<strong>of</strong> a group <strong>of</strong> people who acknowledge that <strong>the</strong>y are members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> same group and share<br />

a common <strong>in</strong>terest. Social <strong>movement</strong> is one <strong>of</strong> many <strong>social</strong> processes that occur <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

society. There are several characteristics owned by <strong>social</strong> <strong>movement</strong> that make it dist<strong>in</strong>ct<br />

from o<strong>the</strong>rs. The first one is well organized. Second, <strong>the</strong> process is extra ord<strong>in</strong>arily<br />

rais<strong>in</strong>g, legislative lobby<strong>in</strong>g and letter writ<strong>in</strong>g campaign. It could be a political process<br />

also.<br />

Br<strong>in</strong>kerh<strong>of</strong>f, White and Ortega agree that <strong>the</strong>re are three k<strong>in</strong>ds <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ories that<br />

could expla<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> circumstances <strong>in</strong> which <strong>social</strong> <strong>movement</strong> arises:<br />

a. Relative-deprivation <strong>the</strong>ory (Breakdown Theory)<br />

Relative- deprivation <strong>the</strong>ory suggest that <strong>social</strong> <strong>movement</strong> arise when we<br />

experience an <strong>in</strong>tolerable gap between our rewards and what we believe we have a<br />

right to expect. What we believe we have a right to expect is usually determ<strong>in</strong>ed by<br />

compar<strong>in</strong>g ourselves to o<strong>the</strong>r group or o<strong>the</strong>r time. This <strong>the</strong>ory is also popular as<br />

Breakdown Theory because it relies on disorganiz<strong>in</strong>g effects <strong>of</strong> <strong>social</strong> change.<br />

b. Resource Mobility Theory (Solidarity Theory)<br />

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to this <strong>the</strong>ory, <strong>social</strong> <strong>movement</strong>s develop when organized groups are<br />

compet<strong>in</strong>g for scarce resources. The group here is a group <strong>of</strong> people who have<br />

homogeneity and overlapp<strong>in</strong>g ties. This <strong>the</strong>ory suggests that without support <strong>of</strong><br />

human resources (e.g. leadership, organization and <strong>in</strong>volvement) and o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

resources such as fund and tools, <strong>the</strong> <strong>social</strong> <strong>movement</strong> could not happen. Because
