Social Movement Classification by T. K. Oommen

Sociologist T. K. Oommen proposed a three-fold classification of social movements based on his extensive studies.

This classification categorizes movements according to their primary focus and driving force:

• Charismatic: Movements primarily driven by the influence and appeal of a specific leader or personality.
• Organizational: Movements characterized by established structures, formal organization, and bureaucracy.
• Ideological: Movements centered around a strong set of beliefs, values, and a comprehensive ideology.

This framework helps in understanding the diverse nature and dynamics of social movements.

Therefore, the correct answer is T. K. Oommen.
