Peer reviewedJenkins, J. Craig; Eckert, Craig M. – American Sociological Review, 1986
Critically evaluates the theory of patronage and professional social movement organizations (SMOs) in interpreting the development of black insurgency between 1953 and 1980. Findings support and contradict the social contract theory. Professionalization was only one of many reasons for the movement's decline. (Author/PS)
