Definition
- Collective action occurs through the decision of individuals, who are regarded as rational actors seeking to maximize self-interest, to participate in an activity with the purpose of achieving common or group interests. The study of collective action therefore provides valuable insight for understanding the dynamics of activities or movements generated and sustained by a group of cooperating individuals.
