State
Aberle's four movement types cross two axes: locus of change (individual vs. supra-individual) and amount of change (partial vs. total) — alternative, redemptive, reformative, transformative.

Watch for
A movement's aim can shift over its lifespan; reformative goals can radicalize into transformative demands.
