I agree with those who point out the radical differences between the TP and
OWS, particularly on the issue of wealthy donors for the TP. However,
Skocpol's analysis of the TP (The Tea Party and the Remaking of Republican
Conservatism, 2012, Oxford) highlights that the base of the TP is
grassroots, and is highly skeptical of the big donor class. In terms of
skepticism of authority, and some other common social movement dynamics,
there actually are similarities between the groups, although the obvious
big
differences cannot be overlooked. Right now I'm tinkering with 3 research
questions
1) Are there social/demographic/economic predictors of TP vs. OWS-I can
get this from census/ACS Tiger files that have this data down to census
tract level, and FEC candidate data at the district level.
2) Was there an electoral or candidate impact of the TP (2009) vs. OWS
(2011) on the subsequent election for the districts with activism-i.e.,
movement in one direction or another, compared with the prior election
results/candidates?
3) Are there tertiary factors that predict activism more
broadly-i.e.,
areas with an overlap of TP and OWS activism, separate from factors that
predict a specific partisan trajectory.

I've written this into a research proposal, but wanted to get some
feedback
first:
"In the social movement literature within sociology, digital media is less
negated than omitted"
Agree or disagree? Seems that the social movement studies that include
reference to digital media are coming out of comm.
Thanks,
Mary
