1. Collective Behavior
Write about a fad, fashion trend, riot, or panic about which you are familiar. (You do not have to have experienced it yourself; it is okay to just "know" about this example.) Use either contagion theories, emergent norm theories, or value-added theory in order to explain why people participate(d) in this collective/crowd behavior.
2. Design a Social Movement
Design a social movement. What problem or issue would you want to address? How would you overcome the problems of social movements that were identified in this chapter? In other words, how would you get people to be involved in your movement? How would you frame your issue? What methods would you undertake to try to ensure that your movement was successful?
