When an organically arisen movement pursues political goals, has developed sufficient social cohesion, and its elite is recognised within the movement as directive, purposive political action becomes necessary to achieve those goals.
- Explanation. During an initial phase, a movement may primarily consist of developing, sharing and disseminating civilisation elements. As sufficient social cohesion arises and an elite is recognised within the movement as directive, the capacity to formulate common political goals, coordinate resources and act purposively against competing actors increases. When such political goals are actually pursued, purposive political action is necessary to realise them.
