This article examines the "new social movements" that emerged separately from the old (traditional, classical) social movements based on worker and class. New social movements are defined as cultural and identity-based, decentralized and non-leader, nonviolent, voluntary, emerging with the participation of large masses of all classes and educational levels and carrying continuity. Another feature of these movements is that they can bring together people of very different political views with opposing views. “New” social movements emerge as parts formed under social roles, communication networks and organizations. The study of new social movements was mostly carried out through Wallerstein, Touraine, Dahrendorf, May, Lukacs, Melucci, Offe, Foucault, Laclau-Mouffe, Epstein, Plotke, Hobsbawn and Castells. In the article, it is aimed to contribute to science by proposing a new concept ("New Social Inertia Model"), according to the findings of the field research while examining New Social Movements as a "modern" critique of modernization, which is outside the political and socioeconomic context. The article was produced from my doctoral dissertation. Based on the findings of my thesis, I propose a “New Social Inertia”^® (NSI) model / concept as well as the New Social Movement (NSM) model. Because, while social roles, communication networks and active organizations are in question in NSMs, our research has revealed that there is "passive/negative organization" instead of active organization in the "voluntary television channel" model, which is a new formation. It can be said that the television channels based on "volunteerism", which is seen as a new model of social movement, have a beneficial function for the governments by consolidating (keeping them under control) and "deactivating" the reactions of the opposition masses. The article was produced from my doctoral dissertation.
