Question

Which among the following is not a feature of social movement?

• A. Shared objective
• B. Sustained collective action
• C. Self-orientation
• D. To bring social change

Hint:

Social movements are based on collective goals and organized action.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
Social movements are organized collective efforts by groups of people to promote or resist social change.

Step 1:
Social movements are formed around common goals and collective interests. \[ \text{Shared objective is a feature} \]

Step 2:
Social movements involve sustained and organized collective participation by members. \[ \text{Sustained collective action is a feature} \]

Step 3:
Most social movements aim to bring change in society, institutions, or policies. \[ \text{Social change is a major feature} \]

Step 4:
Self-orientation focuses on individual interest rather than collective social goals, so it is not a feature of social movements. \[ \text{Self-orientation is incorrect} \]

Step 5:
Therefore, the correct answer is Self-orientation. \[ \boxed{\text{(3) Self-orientation}} \]
