| Abstract [eng] |
The aim of this work was to analyze The Formation of Lithuanian Reform Movement by raising a question whether the Reform Movement micro-network formed on the preexisting network basis and what had a reason for its extention. The assumptions of the Reform Movement are analyzed through the methodological access of the social network analysis. The formation of the Reform Movement is analyzed in two sections: the micro-network and individual level. Micro-network analysis section will help to examine on what social network The Reform Movement support groups were forming in Šiauliai and Trakai districts. It is worthwhile to investigate the micro-level network because it reflects the internal dynamics of collective action among network members and the relationship between existing configuration. This level of analysis shows how the relatively static social structure transforms into a dynamic collective action. The individual level helps to find out the reasons of involvement in the mass movements of micro-network, social environment practises (taking into account the fear, confidence factors), also helps to find out the impact of Šiauliai and Trakai districts for micro-network formation. The structure of micro-network formation and the role of people acting in the movement were analyzed using the social network theory. In this work there was hypothesized that the formation of micro-networks was influenced by early local network problems and interpersonal networks. Social network analysis in Šiauliai and Trakai approved the hypothesis of this work. The study showed that previously existed local problems in Trakai strongly influenced the early formation of the Movement of micro-network, while the formation of the Movement in Šiauliai was influenced by the previously existed interpersonal networks. The qualitative research showed that the Movement formed from multiple individual initiatives that often invoked ecological and environmental problems. It should be noted that the Movement for the further development of micro network has a significant impact on professional relationships, on which were based largely created support groups. Looking into weak and strong networks, noted that there was a greater impact of weak based bounded groups. Further studies exploring the formation of the Movement could focus on the influence of the Soviet underground organizations understanding what was the impact of the Movement on the social micro-network and its development. It is also important to investigate the underground network led to the emergence of the Movement. It is worthwile to examine the support groups of students, theri motivation for engaging in the Movement. The Movement is poorly researched in terms of political sociology, and there are many aspects of the analysis of many sections which can deal with this broad social movement. It is also important to investigate the underground network led to the emergence of the Movement Movement. It is worthwhile to examine the involvement of students and the mass movement, which encouraged students to develop support groups, as has been widely school network support group. Movement is poorly researched in terms of political sociology, and there are many aspects of the analysis of many sections, which can deal with this broad social movement. |
