Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

According to relative deprivation theory, people who are satisfied with their present condition are less likely to seek social change. Social movements arise as a response to people's perception that they have been deprived of their fair share. Thus, people who suffer relative deprivation are more likely to feel that change is necessary and to join a social movement in order to bring about that change. Relative deprivation refers to the discontent that people may feel when they compare their achievements with those of similarly situated persons and find that they have less than they think they deserve.

Movements based on relative deprivation are more likely to occur when an upswing in the standard of living is followed by a period of decline, such that people have unfulfilled rising expectationsnewly raised hopes of a better lifestyle that are not fulfilled as rapidly as the people expected or are not realized at all.
