Collective action
DEFINITION
Traditionally, under the term "collective action", one refers to the action taken by a group of people, who need to reach a common goal, and improvement of the situation for all the group members (ideally).
This term has special formulations and theories in many areas of the social sciences such as sociology, psychology, anthropology, political science, economics etc.
The definition itself is quite abstract, as well as the possible ways to implement the most positive and efficient decision for every unique situation. Despite the seemingly simple appearance, the whole process of the collective action is a multi-disciplinar issue, which has not been developed enough neither by the state, nor by the market, to create a succesfully working strategy, equally efficient for most of the situations emerging.
