Article Critiqu


Social changes are often accompanied by organized groups of people who either advocate or resist the change, or attempt to exploit new developments for the benefit of their group or for what they perceive to be the greater good of the national community.CLICK HERE TO ORDER THIS ESSAY!!!!
After reading and doing your own research on the Tea Party write an article critique of Jill Lepore’s Tea and Sympathy: Who Owns the American Revolution? and Gordon Wood’s response, No Thanks for the Memories. After briefly summarizing each article, analyze the arguments of each author.
Did one author’s arguments seem more valid than the other?
What biases do the authors have? How did the authors use sources to support their arguments?
What are other authors saying about this topic?
How are Lepore’s and Wood’s articles important in an academic setting?
Then, after conducting additional research, provide a definition of the term ‘social movement.’
What differentiates social movements from other forms of political activity?
Should politically active groups such as the Tea Party be regarded as social movements?
How have social media affected recent social movements?
