Anam’s comments from the Social Sciences group.

"Popular Revolution" means that a large and diverse number of people adopt a common and shared vision and goal for social change.

The key for a successful popular revolution involves having not only a large number of people (20% of more) but a diversity of people involved with the movement for change (i.e.race, creed, political philosophy, and socio-economic standing, etc.). Having a simple majority of opinion on one side of a political or social movement does not guarantee its success.

What makes some revolutions more popular then others?
