Abstract
Despite numerous writings, the concept of social action still remains vague and elusive. An attempt is made here to define social action as a strategy of limited social change at the intermediate or macro levels of society that is generally used in nonconsensus situations and employs both norm-adhering and norm-testing modes of intervention. The scope of change, the use of power, and the strategies of change are the three crucial characteristics of social action explicated in this paper.
