Passive_Social_Control

Passive Social Control PASSIVE SOCIAL CONTROL A whole society being captured due to greed is not something we are not used to hearing about. Thousands dying within a matter of days due to murder and all forms of brutality has been a reality. Can any of us really imagine having our freedom and everything else that we are used to be taken away within a matter of time. Could we actually visualize social change due to factors such as newcomers or a revolution' Well that is what the people in Kenya faced during the Mau Mau Rebellion between the years of 1952-1956. Passive social control, and the forms used has been an issue when discussing the effectiveness of the Africans resistance. Some would say that there was no such thing as passive resistance, and some like myself would say that passive social control played a huge factor in the shaping of the Africans responses. There is no way to say that violence was not another huge part of the rebellion, but I believe that it played very evenly with propaganda and other passive acts. Intimidation, manipulation, and violence were the keys to a successful defeat. mau, british, people, social, control, passive, intimidation, out, manipulation, kenya, information, violence, being, another, africans, against, within, propaganda, played, knowledge, african, work, successful, say, part, oaths, kikuyu, forms, form, factor, effective, due, change, came, been
