What is the English term for the concept Aktivismus?

• A. Activism
• B. Activity
• C. Activist
• D. Active

Answer: (A)

Aktivismus denotes the practice or movement of taking action to bring about social or political change. In English, the proper noun for this idea is activism, which names the coordinated efforts, campaigns, and advocacy work aimed at influencing policies or public opinion. That makes it the best fit here.

Activity is a general act or event and doesn’t capture the sense of organized efforts to create change. Activist refers to a person who engages in such efforts, not the movement itself. Active is an adjective describing someone or something currently in action, not the concept of advocacy or organized action.
