They are large informal groupings of individuals and/or organizations focused on specific political or social issues, in other words, on carrying out, resisting or undoing a social change. in freebase terms, social movements are events, motivated decisions, and moral expressions. social movements are more general than protests. and creating a social movement is difficult to describe as an 'innovation' by a stretch, all 'ideas' are social movements, that is, they all have a particular timeline. but please keep the focus of this type on social (moral) change.
