~~~OPPOSITION: Coercive strategy as to facilitate social change~~~

Persuasion and Education is the best strategy to facilitate social change rather than coercive strategy

• Coercive is not the way to facilitate social change. Change cannot be facilitated through coercive but change can be facilitated through persuasion and education. Moreover, social change cannot be performed by using coercive strategy because nowadays it is not suitable anymore for our society. They will change if they want. If the Change Agents use coercive power to make their followers change, the duration of social change will be short as compared to persuasion and education strategy.

• Moreover, the Change Targets Groups will not fully changed and the changes will not stay long if the Change Agents use the coercive strategy. Thus, the best strategy to facilitate social change is by using the persuasion and education strategy.

• By using the persuasion strategy, the Change Target Groups will slowly change willingly as they really want to change, as the effort made by the Change Agents. In the persuasion strategy, the Change Agents will try to persuade the Change Target Groups by using the soft skills based on their experiences and knowledge. It will take time but the result of change is outstanding.

• By using education strategy, if we want to facilitate social change we must have good education level. When we have strong knowledge and skills, we can easily make the Change Target Group to believe and follow what we said. It is important to educate them rather than to force them. Nowadays, Change Target Group would rather to choose to be educated and persuaded rather than be forced.

• Hence, we can conclude that the coercive is not the strategy to facilitate social change. The best way to facilitate social change is by using persuasion strategy and education strategy.
