Abstract
This thesis utilized social identity models on collective action to initiate an investigation into what motivates participation in environmental activism groups—specifically analyzing the case of the local XR group in Stuttgart. The environmental background of the group sets it apart fundamentally from other social action groups, due to the issue’s structural-incidental dichotomy, its lack of a clear other, and its multifaceted nature. The relevance of addressing this instance of collective action is apparent because of the need in society to bring forward vital scientific issues through activism.
